Name resolution and how to find the source destination traffic

[atish]

Hello all
I am new to opnsense, just moved from a linksys. After reading the forums and docs I have installed Opnsense with Geoip filteration and IPS enabled.

I have newbie questions.

1- in the logfile I get IP addresses, even though I check the lookup source name flag. few are resolved but not all. how do I get the names resolved for all the IP addresses.

2. I want to find which internal computers are talking to where , source and destination , how do I get this info

Thanks

Welcome. 

Regarding 2, you can look at Insight under reporting...that can be useful for what it sounds like you're asking about.  Also, for real time you can look under firewall | diagnostics | pftop.  Really depends what you need/want.

Regarding 1, not sure what you're after...what names do you want resolved?  Firewall rule names?  That's a limitation in FreeBSD (as I understand it).  You can look in the Live Log and see it there.  If you're talking about IP addresses being resolved...do you mean DNS?  Local or remote addresses?

Thanks for the tip PFTOP..

However the PF top is showing only ipaddress, not the domain name of the ip address being accessed
for names I am refering to domain names that are being accessed.

ntopng is probably what you're looking for then.  You'll need to install that as an add-on.
