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.

    Been a while since I set it up but as I recall it’s a 5-minute from job that runs a command that just dumps the pf block list fail2ban manages into a text file in my public_html directory. Then I just add a feed in pfblocker with the address of the text file and it loads from that feed.

      I’ll see if I can dig up some info. I started searching, then got busy. So I put the few I had time to find in a selfhosted Readeck instance. I use it for ‘read it later’ kind of bookmarks.

      Thanks for the share.
