Lastly, I added Squid with the intention to use its antivirus functionality. It is really difficult to grasp a topic when trying to make sense of both the concepts AND best practice at once, while sorting through malicious and simply bad advice.
If you want to read the log files type: snort -d -v -r. The log will be saved inside snortlogs directory. Most notably put forward by aggressive and unfriendly contributors of the pfsense forum - conclusions are that rather than adding loads of problems into suppress lists, the "overly active rule" should be disabled. In order to save Snort’s reports we need to specify to Snort a log directory, if we want Snort to show only headers and log the traffic on the disk type: mkdir snortlogs.

After installing pfSense on the APU device I decided to setup suricata on it as well. As the pfSense starts booting, a prompt is displayed with some options and a countdown timer. hope it works alright.īlocks everywhere! at a few instances even the open DNS 8.8.8.8. I've added some 10-15 additional blocklists. apparently there are not enough people on youtube to give bad advice on FreeNAS - there are boatloads of dubious ideas presented on pfSense too). PfBlockerNG has not made a lot of noise since I removed the initial "block the world" additional rule (idea from a youtube tutorial on the topic.
