Thanks for your comprehensive response Franco, your time and everyones time who contributes to the open source community is much appreciated by me.

I see now that it can be made to work with a one liner, of course purely for my own convenience it would help to have the package in the repository, but i understand now the complexities involved with making this happen, not to mention the other aspects of the project competing for your time.

I hope this makes it in one day, and thanks for a great product made available to the community :-)

Development and Code Review / Re: PFMonitor plugin for OPNSense

Hi Everyone,

I head up a small IT department, and I had been considering making the leap into PfSense based on it's functionality with PFMonitor as it was a perfect fit for my project to roll out 50 centrally managed firewalls to small branch offices. I had also been looking into spending money on 50 units plus annual  support from netgate, but i always do my homework where money is concerned, and I soon had second thoughts when i discovered this;

https://opnsense.org/opnsense-com/

I am not sure i want to spend my budget with these shady characters, and the further down the rabbit hole i went the less enamored i was with PfSense's close affilliation with Netgate if this is the sort of thing they have been up to.

Now it looks as if I don't have much in the way of options other than to buy something from the likes of sonicwall and GMS off the shelf to get the level of functionality i need, I wonder if there has been any headway in getting OPNSense to work with this central management suite?
