We run pfsense, and have experimented with snort and a few other network management extensions, but found that it was REALLY hard to manage them effectively with all of the unpredictable ways that our members use the internet. Rulesets end up getting complicated and confusing.
We want to make it easy for someone to come in, sit down, and get straight to work...without wasting time figuring out why something isn't working on our network. It's been easy to go overkill with network management tools that end up making the network LESS useful instead of more. This frustrates members AND our team members who don't always know how to explain why the internet isn't working the way they need/expect, let alone how to fix the issue. If someone has a magical universal ruleset, though...I'd love to check it out ;) -Alex ------------------ *The #1 mistake in community building is doing it by yourself.* Join the list: http://coworkingweekly.com Listen to the podcast: http://dangerouslyawesome.com/podcast On Sun, Apr 12, 2015 at 5:00 PM, Jacques Paquin <[email protected]> wrote: > I'm running pfsense in our cowork space and am curious how other people > have it configured. > > Have you installed snort for ids/ips?
