[Feedback] - System Rules Logging

[guest28819]

Hello OPNsense-Community,

I am new to OPNsense / Community so a Hello to all

What am I looking for?

I am in the search to disable Logging from System Rules I deem unworthy of FW-Log Entry's - Specifically all that has to do with IPv6 or Mixed Services IPv4+IPv6.

Why?

To declutter the Live Log - I love this feature allot in OPNsense and saved me allot of times in configuring Communication and Ports - The One thing I rly do not like is the IPv6 Block Logs that sneak in because my ISP thinks he needs to forward IPv6 traffic or my LAN IoT Hardware that thinks it need to communicate via IPv6 too.

Maybe solutions:

I do not want to activate IPv6 Support to generate a single Floating Rule with Block IPv6 - Thinks it defeats the purpose of the build in feature. I found the Forum Post on how to configure this but like mentioned above not a real solution!

Suggestion:

Just give us the admins the power to turn logging ON or OFF on System Generated Rules - Or - even better disable IPv6 Protocol in general on the NIC - If something dos not know how it works it can not process it right?! <- If it is possible?

Best regards
Val.

@Valvaris,

I'm not that new to OPNsense but have spend a lot of time to find a way to disable logging for the "Block all IPv6" rule (in my case #18). I've been scrolling through /conf/config.xml but here I can't find the specific rule. So the conclusion could be that these pre-defined rules are stored somewhere else. All the rules defined by myself are stored in config.xml but the pre-defined rules seems not. Hopefully we will get a response of someone who knows how to deal with this issue.
