Title: Insight report (other)
Post by: Lenif on March 22, 2024, 05:33:18 PM
Hello,

I use opnsense at home since few years.
I configure 4 vlan's for parents, childrens, iot & guest.

I see on my internet provider abnormal consumption and so, i try to check reporting with insight

I see a line with (other) no source, no destination and 64GB of traffic. See capture

How can i check what is (other) ?

thanks for your help,

Regards

Same issue here
were you ever able to figure out what the source is?

"other" ports are those that have no specific assignment, so unlike http(80) or https(443) or dns(53), which can be identified by their port numbers. Even if there are non-standard destination ports, they will be listed by number if they make up a relevant portion of your traffic. You may see that when you use smaller time ranges.

If a big proportion of your traffic (like ~41%) is to destination ports "other" that means there is no discernible service and there is lots of different ports. That would be kind of strange. I see < 3% of my traffic going to "other".
