Title: IDS and Alerts
Post by: spetrillo on April 03, 2024, 05:23:56 pm

Hello all,

Is there a way to get email notifications when IDS has active alerts? Unless I check the log continually I have no way of knowing what is going on.

Thanks,
Steve

Can Zabbix tie in and do this? I'm still working on setting up Zabbix to monitor stuff, but it might be able to send you a play by play or maybe a summary of alerts every XX minutes/hours. Might be worth looking into a little deeper. Needs a Zabbix server running and then (I assume) installing the Zabbix client from the plug in selection (OPNsense).

I found you can use Monit: https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=22351.0. I would love to use Zabbix but have found nothing that reliably works.
