How does Unifi's DPI on a UDM Pro recognize the type of traffic on the WAN-side of a local pfsense VM that is configured to route "all" traffic through a VPN provider?

    Application: Collect ALL UniFi Controller, Site, Device & Client Data - Export to InfluxDB or Prometheus

    • Depends on your hardware. pfSense/OpnSense support NetFlow exports as do a lot of router hardware vendors. Ubiquiti doesn't in their Unifi products, but with DPI turned on you can use things like https://github.com/unpoller/unpoller to pipe into Influx or Elastic or something else to visualize. When I ran opnSense I piped netflow to PRTG for visualization. Now I'm running a UDMP and use the linked unifi-poller to influx and then have some grafana panels for quick viz on top talker protocols and IPs. Worst case you can fall back to things like ntop or ntopng, though there are plenty of free options out there for most setups.
