My part of the new code is complete. There are some additional options being considered by the pfSense Team to take full advantage of the new OpenAppID feature. I am waiting for them to notify me when they are ready for me to post the code for final review.

You are making difficult even for me choosing between snort and suricata :D
An excellent feature, maybe this will help all the people wishing to block specific things (facebook, youtube) without any additional package.

Sorry about that … ;D.
Will be posting a Suricata 2.0.4 preview thread shortly. I'm adding GeoIP and IP Reputation support to Suricata in the 2.0.4 update. That pull request is currently posted for review by the pfSense developers.

Just installed the package (upgraded from 2.9.6.2), and Snort disappeared from the Services.
System:Package Manager still lists the snort package as installed.
Rebooting pfSense does not help. Any ideas?
Thank you
-
Same here… lost Snort selection under Services.
Can access it with this link ... http://x.x.x.x/snort/snort_interfaces.php

OpenID detection package link comes up blank when the the option is checked.
-
Ya, when enabling, it gives the error "You must supply a download URL in the box provided in order to enable OpenAppID detectors!"
But, there is no box. :(

Did you stuck on the Install screen that says "Waiting for Snort to start…."? and you clicked on something else?
I found if you didn't let the install finishes Snort will disappear from the Service list.
Because there is a bit more installs process after the "Waiting for Snort to start..." message.
I had my search method set on AC for both WAN and LAN and it takes AGES and I mean AGES for Snort to start.Hope this helps.

Thanks to Renato for helping me out. A fix was posted this morning that should correct the bogus validation error when enabling the new OpenAppID download under GLOBAL SETTINGS.
I will post a separate release notes thread.
For those of you having the service disappear from the menu, make sure you have space available on /tmp and /var. Also give Snort plenty of time to restart. Depending on your setup, this can take a while. You will get a confirmation message on the screen.

Wow, this is great, thank you!
I have run into an issue writing the example rule, and I'm wondering if it is because I'm on the 64-bit version of pfsense, or perhaps I just can't type :) Here is what I entered in the LAN custom rules:
alert tcp $HOME_NET any -> $EXTERNAL_NET any (msg:"facebook Reddit or Twitter applicaionts"; appid: facebook facebook_apps reddit twitter twitter_link; sid:1000000; classtype:misc-activity; rev:1;)When I hit save, I get this error:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ux2b3bz6vypu2gz/Screenshot%202014-12-19%2010.17.58.png?dl=0text is Custom rules have errors: Fatal Error, Quitting…ERROR: /usr/pbi/snort-amd64/etc/snort/snort_50141_em/rules/custom.rules(1) Rule options must be enclosed in '('and')'.
I have tried modifying my input to match what it suggests, but I keep getting the same error no matter what I do. Have I missed something blindingly obvious, or is there possibly something "different" about 64-bit pfsense that might be causing this - or anything else I cna check, really. Thanks, I'm really looking forward to using this!

Try this

Can we have a default syntax rule somewhere in there?
Just so we dont have to write the darn thing from scratch knowing that I will screw it up a million times :D
-
The rule for this syntax
alert tcp $EXTERNAL_NET any -> $HOME_NET any (msg:"facebook Reddit or Twitter applications"; appid: facebook facebook_apps reddit twitter twitter_link; sid:1000000; classtype:misc-activity; rev:1;)
Has this effect in firefox… Facebook is not working, Reddit is not working but Twitter works like a charm.
So no effect on Twitter...

I had some problems with Twitter. As I posted in the Release Notes thread a few minutes ago, this is a brand new feature to Snort everywhere (and not just pfSense).
There are no absolute ironclad rules yet that I am aware of. I posted a link in the Release Notes thread to the VRT Blog site where you can find some more info.

But it should be so easy if PfSense had Layer 7 inspection built in??
ISA Server had it and it worked like a charm.
Tell it to block facebook and it did…Like Snort is doing now, but somehow much more elegant if you know what I mean.
