Hi all, once again, in 2025, any progress about suricata in IPS mode on pppoe interface is working?

is it still not working?
are there any plans to resolve this long-standing issue?

as the default F/W rule on WAN interfaces, is drop, i'm not interested in unsolicited inbound dropped traffic, i instead run suricata in IDS mode on all LAN interfaces....which included all outbound LAN-> WAN traffic as well. So my attention is only focused in internal potential threats, and not concerned in unsolicited inbound dropped traffic....

IPS mode not working on interfaces using PPPoE is a known limitation.

Unfortunately, it's still the same.
Thanks for the update franco.
