Port mirror & Netflow

[synthetiq]

Hello,

I have a brand new basic install of OPNsense 17.1.4-amd64 as a Virtual Machine in an ESXi environment.  Right now I just want to setup the device to see how it handles traffic analytics/netflow before I place it inline.

As of now I have LAN (em0) setup with management IP and I'm able to login remotely.

I also have WAN (em1) setup to receive all traffic from my LAN via Port Mirror on the connected switch.  I do not have IP setup on WAN.

I have ran tcpdump -i em1 and can verify that it is receiving LAN traffic.  However, I am unable to see anything in Reporting > Insights or Reporting > Netflow.  I have tried setting the Netflow settings to listen on WAN interface, Capture Local, and set destination to 127.0.01:2056

Still no luck.

Any ideas?

Thanks for any help
