Title: OPNsense Firewall Live view dashboard widget - historical?
Post by: bx2 on June 26, 2025, 08:05:08 PM
Hello OPNsense team,

As an OPNsense user at home and slowly working to deploy it out for some of our smaller sites, a nice to have feature would be to have a dashboard widget, similar to the Firewall Live View but allow it to show representation of maybe 24 hours/x days.

I realize that maybe this data can be sent off to a data collector but it would be nice and convenient if there was something on the dashboard that showed not just live but statistics from a period of time.

While working on a new OPNsense deployment and testing/reviewing what is being blocked, its much easier to see this from the dashboard widget currently versus the actual live log. It just makes it difficult when the dashboard widget resets every time the page is reloaded.

I realize there is the Insight setting under Reporting but it would be nice to have this type of data on the dashboard for quick overview.

Is there a reason that the team hasn't deployed this? I bet there are higher priority items but I would like to see what others think regarding this.


Thanks
