I have installed Suricata and I use the ET Telemetry. I also have a Pihole as my local DNS, resolves back to Unbound in OPNSense
The Pihole has hundreds of calls per minute to opnsense.emergingthreats.net, see example from Pihole log below. The calls are from my OPNsense firewall (192.168.121.1), that's why I am posting on this forum

I checked my Suricata logs and the Unbound logs in OPNSense, nothing going on (e.g. no calls out to 72.12.200.25 - Wintek.com - data provider).
Any suggestions on how to diagnose what is going on ?
Did you ever figure this out? I am seeing the same thing!
