      Hello again everyone!

      You guys have been awesome w/ quick response for the few questions I have.

      I have a curve ball now….

      I have read and heard that pfsense could be configured as either an active IPS, or even a passive IDS.

      I am unsure how complicated this would be, if snort is the right choice, and how to get started.

      Does anyone here have any real life experience configuring this, or recommend any documentation on how to get this working?

      Peace...  :P
