conntracker

A good addition to your conntrack-tools package. Conntracker acts like a firewall sniffer, it analysis, realtime, with very low overhead, all iptables (or nf_tables) existing flows and inform you, at the very end of its execution, all flows in a sorted and consumable way. (by rafaeldtinoco)

  • Steam Games Strict NAT Issue

  • Xbox strict NAT

    It's odd, because the nat-pmp/pcp configuration does support a lifetime configuration (apparently not exposed by the OPNSense UI). I assume that's not shared by the UPnP code path. Even so, time-limited rules was one of the security additions with UPnP v2, so I would doubt "unlimited" would be an option if it were made configurable. It really feels like this is on Xbox to implement properly. Other UPnP consumers like Plex handle it just fine.

    https://github.com/miniupnp/miniupnp/issues/413 is closed. So I’m not sure if the problem exists there still or where?
  • Testing 2.5.1 and 2.6 in a VM. Where is UPNP?
    1 project | /r/PFSENSE | 14 May 2021
    Reading this https://github.com/miniupnp/miniupnp/issues/448 is pretty sad. UPNP is very useful for home users. We are 5 people in our family with about 20 internet connected devices. No way I am setting up Port Forwarding manually for each app on each device. I have other things to do with my very scarce free time.
