Write as well to Firewall Log

(1/1)

Mbl:
Hi Zenarmour Team and Community

I really appreciate Sensei and the application is a very good complement to OPNsense.

However, when it comes to finding out why something is blocked, an OPNsense / Sensei installation always has the option between firewall AND Sensei and the admin always has to look in both logs at the same time, which is a bit cumbersome.
For larger installations you can set up a syslog server and do the first line trouble shooting based on the syslog information. With smaller customer installations, however, there is usually no syslog server available.

For this reason I would like to propose a feature request to write sensei logs optionally (e.g. as an option in the sensei settings) into the sensei logs - what do you think?

Best regards
Marc

Hi,

To clarify, would you recommend writing Zenarmor's log to the OPNsense firewall log file?

Mbl:
Yes, exactly. I am aware that the Sensei logs contain much more information than those of the firewall. Nevertheless, it would give a more centralized overview of what is going on.
