[pfSense] RRD persistence
Hail, I have a couple of pfsense using the nanobsd approach. Great stability, great for flash memory. But I always loose my rrd data when I reboot. is there a way to have it written like once a day/week ? thanks, matheus -- We will call you cygnus, The God of balance you shall be A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.

Re: [pfSense] RRD persistence
Doesn't it automatically save the latest files when you reboot? I don't reboot often, but I don't remember ever having lost data (except if the firewall crashes - which did happen a few times in the past).

There is effectively no difference between running with blocking and without from a general performance perspective. I'm guessing you're blocking something that is causing delays elsewhere, like maybe a name server that then requires your clients to wait for a timeout and try another, or something similar along those lines. Check your alerts and what you're blocking. ___ pfSense mailing list https://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list Support the project with Gold! https://pfsense.org/gold
Re: [pfSense] How to change driver for NIC
It is only pfSense 2.2, that has this not usuable speed from other VM's in the Xenserver. I installed xenserver with a pfSense guest on a machine, and had the same problem. Traffic from hosts on the lan through the pfSense guest to the wan is nice and fast, but traffic from other guests through pfSense drops to a crawl. From what I can gather, this is a problem with the freebsd 10 drivers, and not really related to pfSense. And unfortunately, you can't change the NIC emulation in xenserver for guests. I tried in several ways. Freebsd 10 senses the xen environment and installs the xen NIC drivers and there seems no way to change this. There are enough people with freebsd having this problem that I'm sure this will be fixed before long. ___ pfSense mailing list https://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list Support the project with Gold! https://pfsense.org/gold

[pfSense] Using Snort in PFSense, slowdowns the internet connection
Hi All, We are using PFSense as a Firewall in our production environment. For IDS/IPS, we have also installed Snort package into it. In Snort, there are two rulesets one from the Snort itself and other one from Emerging Threat. We have enabled Snort Community, Snort VRT Free and ETOpen. We have users connected behind this Firewall. We are facing the issue like slowness in the internet. The images takes long time to load. When I disable block offenders, it works fine. But the purpose of doing this whole is to prevent users from the attacks/offenders. Is all the above ruleset needed for Intrusion Detection and Prevention ? How can I increase the performance and be secure in parallel ? If any one of the ruleset is good enough to secure from the intrusion, please suggest. Would be glad if get help on which categories to be block. If could get the list of high attacks category, will do. Looking forward for your early response.
