Title: Uploading Custom Suricata Rules with the GUI?
Post by: spidysense on November 18, 2024, 10:43:01 AM
Is there a way to upload custom Suricata rulesets using the GUI? At one point we use to be able to do this but it doesn't look like its availaible any longer. Here was an old way:

Step 1: Navigate to the Suricata Settings

    - In the OPNsense dashboard, go to Services > Intrusion Detection.
    - Click on the "Signatures" tab.

Step 2: Add Custom Suricata Rules

    - Scroll down to the "Local Rules" section.

Here, you can add custom rules directly into the Suricata rule configuration:
You can paste the contents of your custom rules into the box.
Alternatively, you can specify a custom rule file location (more advanced).
