Table of Contents
PFSense - Suricata - Create a custom HOME_NET
You have to first create a Pass List on the PASS LIST tab.
Then on the INTERFACE SETTINGS tab for the interface you want to set a custom HOME_NET for, choose the Pass List you created in the drop-down (the one that probably says “default” right now).
Create a Firewall Alias
Navigate to Firewall → Aliases.
- Put all the remote networks and IP addresses (excepting locally-attached addresses on the firewall itself) that you want to be in HOME_NET in that alias.
TIP: Remember that on pfSense you can nest aliases (so you can put an alias in another alias).
Create a Suricata Passlist
Navigate to Services → Suricata → Pass Lists.
- Click Add.
- Name the list something with HOME_NET in it just to help you identify it in the future.
- You probably want to leave all the defaults in the new list.
- Aligned Alias: Type the the name of the alias created earlier.
- Click Save.
Apply Passlist
Navigate to Services → Suricata → Interfaces.
- Select the specific Interface you want to modify.
In Networks Suricata Should Inspect and Protect:
- Pass List: Click the drop-down and select the Pass List you created earlier.
- Click Save.
- Restart Suricata on the interface.
