#opnsense — Public Fediverse posts

It didn’t get credited in the release notes, but my first contribution to miniupnp was already merged into OPNsense and released today.

I’m famous! 😄

What a pity, I just learned that I cannot buy @mikrotik routers as they do not support #RFC7217 and violate the #GDPR by missing this feature.

Does #OPNsense and #FreeBSD nowadays have support for #RFC7217 ?

#FritzBox also misses this as a default setting. But they have the configuration knob.

#OPNsense 26.7.3 released. forum.opnsense.org/index.php?to...

@jom Als Ergänzung kann ich dir #qfeeds empfehlen. ich nutze das parallel zu Crowdsec unter #OPNsense Ob es anders einsetzbar ist, kann ich dir nicht sagen. Hier die Seite: https://qfeeds.com/

Im Gegensatz zu #Crowdsec ist es bezahlbar, aber ich nutze die "Community" Version.

I also wanted to implement some optional or new #OIDC aspects, in particular enforcement of phishing-resistant authentication using RFC8176 Auth Method Reference and proprietary #MicrosoftEntra Conditional Access AuthContext.

Also a fully-automated testing pipeline with live #OPNsense, #Keykloak, and #Authentik instance is something I am really exciteted about!

On that way multiple minor improvements went into the OPNsense core project as well so everyone wins 🙃

Last weekend I felt like starting to implement a full OpenID Connect plugin for #OPNsense so the integration to my #Authentik instance becomes more natural, reliable, and secure.

The first beta looks very promising to me and is already feature complete I shall say. Bugs, of course, are included but anyway, it supports over 20 IdP's out of the box, including all major social media sign-in providers so running your own IdP becomes optional! 🎉

Check out the difference between the rinky dink cables my router came with vs what I just installed. My weird sata issues have magically disappeared! 😄

@tux Hier mal Grafisch die CPU Auslastung (ca 35%) . Habe als #Plugin und Service #Crowdsec #qFeeds #Adguard #Home als größe Position u.a. installiert.

#OPNsense

@tux Ich habe dafür "CWWK Mini PC N150 (Upgraded N100) Firewall Appliance" bei Amazon gekauft. Sparsam (Strom) aber Leistungsfähig. Für die gängigen #OPNsense Plugins langt es allemal. Mit einem I5 kann es aber nicht mithalten. Eventuell auf eine stärkere CPU setzen. Alternativ "Protectli"

Achja, das ist keine Verkaufsberatung^^

Hallo Fediverse, ich habe mal eine Frage: Ich suche für OPNsense einen Ersatz für meine defekte IPU 662 (nrg-systems.de/produkte/ipu662…).

Voraussetzungen sind:
- 4 x LAN
- HDMI
- USB
- Genug Power für IDS, Crowdsec, ....

Was könnt ihr mir da empfehlen?
Gerne kann dieser Beitrag geteilt werden.

Bin gerade dabei mit den #Shapers unter #OPNsense zu experimentieren. Interessant. Sieht einfacher aus als es ist. Wichtig zu erkennen: was ist IN und was ist OUT.

#Firewall #Bandbreitenbegrenzung

Yay. BGP advertisements for a network that was available only on one routeros box to my main router running opnsense is working now :)

Survived the next spike! Seems it is really under control. Eventually I'll have to figure out how much memory this translates to.

Finally finally I've actually been at home (well, not quite, my wife had to survive 15-20 mins without iwebs) when #OPNsense had another Tor meltdown. The good thing is that there’s a window when the machine is not completely stuck, so I figured out the right max nmbcluster-value, by being able to test it immediately since when I restart Tor, it’d immediately spool up to the full load!

Observation: after 650.000 clusters it stabilises as Tor’s internal load-balancing kicks in.

Okay, time for the OPNsense 26.7 update. I will be gone for a while. Hopefully only a little while. 😅

Anyone know how to make file deletion "take" on a RAM mount/tmpfs on FreeBSD?

OPNsense is set to log to RAM to save SSD write cycles. I've cleared out the offending file but `df` is still showing 100% utilization and processes are still failing to write.

Edit: seems nginx was holding a file open and disk exhaustion was blocking service restart. A full stop and start of nginx cleared it

@Viss thanks to their toxic behaviour towards #opnsense a while ago i switched fully to deciso appliances and never looked back ;)

RE: https://social.stefanberger.net/@stefan/109887423282459463

Looks like I‘m running #OPNsense since 3.5 years now. Before that I was using #pfSense.
All running on the same #Protectli FW4B box, which replaced my FRITZ!box 5.5 years ago.
All running fine. Knock on wood

#OPNsense 26.4.2 business edition released. Enjoy the weekend! forum.opnsense.org/index.php?to...

I'm a little disappointed that the #OPNsense crew decided to leave the #Zabbix agent out of their libraries...

Ok.. Not a little, a LOT

Just had to configure SNMP on my firewall because someone couldn't be arsed to port the agent to the new version...

Hey, OPNsense crew, #BringBackZabbixAgent, prettyplease.
