## Overview

The pfSense integration enables you to collect and parse logs from pfSense and OPNsense firewalls. By ingesting these logs into the Elastic Stack, you can monitor network traffic, analyze security events, and gain comprehensive visibility into your network's health and security. This integration supports log collection over syslog, making it easy to centralize firewall data for analysis and visualization.
This integration facilitates:
- Monitoring firewall accept/deny events.
- Analyzing VPN, DHCP, and DNS activity.
- Auditing system and authentication events.
- Visualizing network traffic through pre-built dashboards.


### Compatibility

This integration is compatible with recent versions of pfSense and OPNsense. It requires Elastic Stack version 8.11.0 or higher.

### How it works

The pfSense integration works by collecting logs sent from pfSense or OPNsense devices via the syslog protocol. An Elastic Agent is set up on a host designated as a syslog receiver. The firewall is then configured to forward its logs to this agent. The agent processes and forwards the data to your Elastic deployment, where it is parsed, indexed, and made available for analysis in Kibana. The integration supports both UDP and TCP for log transport.

## What data does this integration collect?

This integration collects several types of logs from pfSense and OPNsense, providing a broad view of network and system activity. The supported log types include:
- **Firewall**: Logs detailing traffic allowed or blocked by firewall rules.
- **Unbound**: DNS resolver logs.
- **DHCP Daemon**: Logs related to DHCP lease assignments and requests.
- **OpenVPN**: Virtual Private Network connection and status logs.
- **IPsec**: IP security protocol logs for VPN tunnels.
- **HAProxy**: High-availability and load balancer logs.
- **Squid**: Web proxy access and system logs.
- **PHP-FPM**: Logs related to user authentication events in the web interface.

Logs that do not match these types will be dropped by the integration's ingest pipeline.

## What do I need to use this integration?

- A pfSense or OPNsense firewall with administrative access to configure log forwarding.
- Network connectivity between the firewall and the Elastic Agent host.
- An installed Elastic Agent to receive the syslog data.


## How do I deploy this integration?


### Agent-based deployment

Elastic Agent must be installed on a host that will receive the syslog data from your pfSense or OPNsense device. For detailed installation instructions, refer to the Elastic Agent [installation guide](https://www.elastic.co/docs/reference/fleet/install-elastic-agents). Only one Elastic Agent is needed per host.

### Set up steps in pfSense

1. Log in to the pfSense web interface.
2. Navigate to **Status > System Logs**, and then click the **Settings** tab.
3. Scroll to the bottom and check the **Enable Remote Logging** box.
4. In the **Remote log servers** field, enter the IP address and port of your Elastic Agent host (e.g., `192.168.1.10:9001`).
5. Under **Remote Syslog Contents**, you have two options:
   - **Syslog format (Recommended)**: Check the box for **Syslog format**. This format provides the firewall hostname and proper timezone information in the logs.
- **BSD format**: If you use the default BSD format, you must configure the **Timezone Offset** setting in the integration policy in Kibana to ensure timestamps are parsed correctly.
6. Select the logs you wish to forward. To capture logs from packages like HAProxy or Squid, you must select the **Everything** option.
7. Click **Save**.

For more details, refer to the [official pfSense documentation](https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/monitoring/logs/settings.html).

### Set up steps in OPNsense

1. Log in to the OPNsense web interface.
2. Navigate to **System > Settings > Logging / Targets**.
3. Click the **+** (Add) icon to create a new logging target.
4. Configure the settings as follows:
   - **Transport**: Choose the desired transport protocol (UDP, TCP).
- **Applications**: Leave empty to send all logs, or select the specific applications you want to monitor.
- **Hostname**: Enter the IP address of the Elastic Agent host.
- **Port**: Enter the port number the agent is listening on.
- **Certificate**: (For TLS only) Select the appropriate client certificate.
- **Description**: Add a descriptive name, such as "Syslog to Elastic".
5. Click **Save**.


### Set up steps in Kibana

1. In Kibana, navigate to **Management > Integrations**.
2. Search for "pfSense" and select the integration.
3. Click **Add pfSense**.
4. Configure the integration by selecting an input type and providing the necessary settings. The module is configured by default to use the `UDP` input on port `9001`.


#### UDP Input Configuration

This input collects logs over a UDP socket.

| Setting                     | Description                                                                                                                                        |
|-----------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| **Syslog Host**             | The bind address for the UDP listener (e.g., `0.0.0.0` to listen on all interfaces).                                                               |

After configuring the input, assign the integration to an agent policy and click **Save and continue**.

### Validation

1. First, verify on your pfSense or OPNsense device that logs are being actively sent to the configured Elastic Agent host.
2. In Kibana, navigate to **Discover**.
3. In the search bar, enter `data_stream.dataset: "pfsense.log"` and check for incoming documents.
4. Verify that events are appearing with recent timestamps.
5. Navigate to **Dashboard** and search for the pfSense dashboards to see if the visualizations are populated with data.


## Troubleshooting

For help with Elastic ingest tools, check [Common problems](https://www.elastic.co/docs/troubleshoot/ingest/fleet/common-problems).
- **No data is being collected**:
  - Verify network connectivity between the firewall and the Elastic Agent host.
- Ensure there are no firewalls or network ACLs blocking the syslog port.
- Confirm that the listening port in the integration policy matches the destination port on the firewall.
- **Incorrect Timestamps**:
  - If using the default BSD log format from pfSense, ensure the **Timezone Offset** is correctly configured in the integration settings in Kibana. The recommended solution is to switch to the **Syslog format** on the pfSense device.

  | destination.address                            | Some event destination addresses are defined ambiguously. The event will sometimes list an IP, a domain or a unix socket.  You should always store the raw address in the `.address` field. Then it should be duplicated to `.ip` or `.domain`, depending on which one it is.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           | keyword          |

This value can be determined precisely with a list like the public suffix list (). Trying to approximate this by simply taking the last two labels will not work well for TLDs such as "co.uk".                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    | keyword          |
  | dns.question.subdomain                         | The subdomain is all of the labels under the registered_domain.

  | dns.type                                       | The type of DNS event captured, query or answer. If your source of DNS events only gives you DNS queries, you should only create dns events of type `dns.type:query`. If your source of DNS events gives you answers as well, you should create one event per query (optionally as soon as the query is seen). And a second event containing all query details as well as an array of answers.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          | keyword          |

  | event.category                                 | This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the second level in the ECS category hierarchy. `event.category` represents the "big buckets" of ECS categories. For example, filtering on `event.category:process` yields all events relating to process activity. This field is closely related to `event.type`, which is used as a subcategory. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple categories.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          | keyword          |

  | event.outcome                                  | This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the lowest level in the ECS category hierarchy. `event.outcome` simply denotes whether the event represents a success or a failure from the perspective of the entity that produced the event. Note that when a single transaction is described in multiple events, each event may populate different values of `event.outcome`, according to their perspective. Also note that in the case of a compound event (a single event that contains multiple logical events), this field should be populated with the value that best captures the overall success or failure from the perspective of the event producer. Further note that not all events will have an associated outcome. For example, this field is generally not populated for metric events, events with `event.type:info`, or any events for which an outcome does not make logical sense. | keyword          |
  | event.provider                                 | Source of the event. Event transports such as Syslog or the Windows Event Log typically mention the source of an event. It can be the name of the software that generated the event (e.g. Sysmon, httpd), or of a subsystem of the operating system (kernel, Microsoft-Windows-Security-Auditing).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      | keyword          |
  | event.reason                                   | Reason why this event happened, according to the source. This describes the why of a particular action or outcome captured in the event. Where `event.action` captures the action from the event, `event.reason` describes why that action was taken. For example, a web proxy with an `event.action` which denied the request may also populate `event.reason` with the reason why (e.g. `blocked site`).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              | keyword          |
  | event.timezone                                 | This field should be populated when the event's timestamp does not include timezone information already (e.g. default Syslog timestamps). It's optional otherwise. Acceptable timezone formats are: a canonical ID (e.g. "Europe/Amsterdam"), abbreviated (e.g. "EST") or an HH:mm differential (e.g. "-05:00").                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        | keyword          |
  | event.type                                     | This is one of four ECS Categorization Fields, and indicates the third level in the ECS category hierarchy. `event.type` represents a categorization "sub-bucket" that, when used along with the `event.category` field values, enables filtering events down to a level appropriate for single visualization. This field is an array. This will allow proper categorization of some events that fall in multiple event types.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          | keyword          |

  | network.direction                              | Direction of the network traffic. When mapping events from a host-based monitoring context, populate this field from the host's point of view, using the values "ingress" or "egress". When mapping events from a network or perimeter-based monitoring context, populate this field from the point of view of the network perimeter, using the values "inbound", "outbound", "internal" or "external". Note that "internal" is not crossing perimeter boundaries, and is meant to describe communication between two hosts within the perimeter. Note also that "external" is meant to describe traffic between two hosts that are external to the perimeter. This could for example be useful for ISPs or VPN service providers.                                                                                                                                                                                      | keyword          |

The notation format from RFC 7042 is suggested: Each octet (that is, 8-bit byte) is represented by two [uppercase] hexadecimal digits giving the value of the octet as an unsigned integer. Successive octets are separated by a hyphen.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     | keyword          |

If the URL contains a literal IPv6 address enclosed by `[` and `]` (IETF RFC 2732), the `[` and `]` characters should also be captured in the `domain` field.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    | keyword          |
  | url.extension                                  | The field contains the file extension from the original request url, excluding the leading dot. The file extension is only set if it exists, as not every url has a file extension. The leading period must not be included. For example, the value must be "png", not ".png". Note that when the file name has multiple extensions (example.tar.gz), only the last one should be captured ("gz", not "tar.gz").                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        | keyword          |
