What do you run; Opnsense, pfsense, Smoothwall, maybe a WAF like wazuh?

Today was update/audit firewall day. I’m running a standalone instance of pFsense on a Protectli Vault FW4B - 4 Port - Intel Quad Core - 8GB RAM - 120GB mSATA SSD with unbound, pfBlockerNG, Suricata, ntopng, and heavily filtered. I did bump the swap to 8 GB as I’ve previously noticed a few ‘out of swap’ errors under load.

Before I signed off, I ran it through a couple porn sites to see if my adblocking strategy was working. Not one intrusive ad. Sweet!

Show me what you got.

    It’s simple, boring, and works great.

    One cannot quibble with long term success. Admitidly tho, I am a sucker for a good UI. One of the first things I do when researching a piece of opensource software is to do an image search to see what it looks like. LOL

      Same. Immeasurably disappointed whenever the repo for a GUI program does not include any screenshots.
