23.7 Legacy Series / Is it possible to enable firewall rules via the command line / cron / API?

« on: June 10, 2024, 08:51:51 pm »

I frequently disable a rule for testing and then forget to re-enable it.

It would be very nice to be able to have a cron job run nightly to re-enable all the rules for those times that I forget to do so.  However, I am not seeing that ability in the docs.

Am I overlooking the obvious?

23.7 Legacy Series / Sharing DNS on LAN with DMZ network

« on: November 30, 2023, 07:37:08 am »

I am running Pi-hole on my LAN network and it works very well.  So, I thought I would utilize it on my guest/DMZ network using NAT.   I port forward all traffic going to port 53 on DMZ to Pi-hole on LAN.

For some reason it does not appear to be working.  If I run dig or nslookup on the DMZ network I do not see the query in the Pi-hole query log.  If anyone sees the flaw in my logic I will be most obliged.

General Discussion / Scheduled filtering by MAC address

« on: March 01, 2023, 02:25:22 am »

Hello OPNsense gurus,

I would like to block internet access by MAC id during specific periods of the day (during testing and quizzes).  Is there a way to do that from the UI or the command line?  The latter would allow me to use cron to schedule the outages, the former would be fine as well.

Thanks!

21.1 Legacy Series / Unable to block traffic from DMZ to LAN

« on: June 03, 2021, 02:13:30 am »

I have rules on my DMZ interface as well as my LAN interface blocking traffic from DMZ to LAN but I can still browse to web resources on the LAN network from a web browser on a workstation in the DMZ.  I know I am missing the obvious but I am not currently seeing it.

Attached are my DMZ and LAN rules.

The message in the Live Log for the DMZ -> LAN traffic is:  let out anything from firewall host itself - which is tied to an autogenerated floating rule which I cannot disable.

General Discussion / Plugins are not visible

« on: January 07, 2021, 02:36:58 am »

Hello,

I am running OPNsense 20.7-amd64 and when I browse to System->Firmware->Plugins I am not seeing any plugins listed.  When I was running 20.5 on another system I saw a list of both installed and not installed plugins.

What am I missing?

Thanks and regards,

P.S. Donated US$25 today.

Hardware and Performance / 20.7 is not seeing all my Intel LAN interfaces

« on: November 25, 2020, 09:15:32 pm »

I upgraded from 20.1 and now OPNsense is no longer seeing my em2, em3, and em4 LAN interfaces.

All 5 LAN interfaces are Intel gigabit ethernet ports.

2 Intel 82574L NICs (Motherboard)
3 Intel 82541PI NICs (Daughterboard)

Is there a trick to making that happen?  I suspect I need to install the correct drivers but want to check with the hardware gurus before deviating too much from stock OPNsense.

The Daughterboard is PCI based and wondering if that could be an issue.  dmesg shows the PCI board but I will test to be sure it is well seated.

Cheers!
