Hey guys,
first of all thank you all for the support and the great upgrade to 18.X. I upgraded through console/SSH and run into not a single problem. After what i've read the last days i expected my firewall to explode or something simliar. ;D The new live view for firewall rules looks great! ;)
Back to my "problem".. i saw a github ticket which i made back then about alias reloads for URL Table (IPs) and found this (i had no idea Ad worked on that): https://github.com/opnsense/core/issues/1971
Is it possible to change the time even further? For now i wrote "0" for days and "1" for hours as an expiration time. What if i would like to have a refresh time window of 15 minutes? Is that possbile or is 1 hour the minimum to choose? I use blocklists which would need 10-20 minutes sometimes.
Have a nice day and a happy weekend! :)
Best regards,
Oxy
0.5 is excepted as a value, passes GUI validation (if any..)... similar values might work (didn't actually test if the tables are refreshed) :)
Hi Elektroinside :)
any idea how to check if the table "changed" in any way?
I looked at Firewall > Diagnostics > pfTables, but the list is way to huge and without any timestamp i have no idea when this table got updated the last time. :(
Is there some clever way to check the timestamp via Console/SSH?
Yes, you can WinSCP to /root/var/db/aliastables and check the corresponding alias file's timestamp there :)
Thanks elektroinside :)
I ill write back to you and mark this thread as solved as soon as i found some time to check the alias timestamps (probably this weekend)
Sure thing, you're welcome :)
