Thanks!
One quick question about OPNsense. The reason I left pfsense is that, while pfsense was rock solid, a few needed plugins were not, and would crash the entire router. I heard OPNsense doesn't have third party plugins. Is that true? If so, is that why?

While I don't run OPNsense, I used to run pfsense many years ago. I switched to Sophos UTM, mainly for security features like port scan blocking. However, it seems Sophos UTM is dead, and annoying bugs are driving me nuts (Like getting an email for EVERY port in a port scan attack. Hundreds of emails from Sophos is like a DOS attack in itself). Can OPNSense detect a Port Scan, and then block the IP address of the scanner? I heard this was possible with Snort an pfsense, but I'd like to stay away from pfsense for stability reasons.
Thanks!
