Using Zenarmor and Squid proxy inline

[hv-tech]

Hi ALL,

I can't help but notice that when using Web Proxy in Opnsense that it completely bypasses Zenarmor since it sees my hosts connecting to the destination which is the LAN interface hosting Squid Proxy. I am not sure if there is a setting on the Zenarmor or Proxy side a way to parse the data coming from source being the LAN interface and dest is whatever the proxy is connecting to?

It would be nice if the WAN interface was selectable since I am sure it would capture from LAN out during proxy options.

Hi,

Zenarmor should catch the visited sites and their categories. So if you create a block policy, it should be blocked. But the destination will be shown as proxy IP.

Alright so after some testing, it seems it does work, well 50/50%. So the blocks do not work when I set configurations in "App Controls" but they do when I completely configure a block in "Web Controls"

That all being said, technically "App Controls" should work but don't. What else can I check to understand why blocking doesn't work in "App Controls"?

Hi,

Do you see the sessions in the Live session explorer? The app and app category is shown correctly?

So I attached a screenshot, the last logs were without proxy enabled, as you can see the logs on top are with Web controls enable since without it enabled and App controls enabled only just goes right pass the filter/control.

I would say no its not shown or processed correctly with proxy enabled. So application categories don't seem to work with proxy currently. I wonder if this is something that could be fixed?

Hi,

In the last logs, it seems that the proxy is active and blocked. Do you mean that the applications are not blocked when the proxy is active?

[hv-tech]

Correct, applications are not blocked when proxy is active.

Hi,

Can you share a bug report from the upper right corner of OPNsense Zenarmor GUI? I would like to check the configurations and logs.

[hv-tech]

Logs sent under "Proxy doesn't blocked on App Control."

Hey SY,

Any update on this? Any bug found in the logs I sent?
