  Is it possible to show the top talkers in Elastiflow? I managed to set up Elastiflow and get OPNsense to send to it using https://github.com/pfelk/pfelk

• PFsense vs Mikrotik
  reddit.com/r/homelab | 2021-06-19

  I have been debating in my head whether to keep my current setup (PFsense on an old laptop) or buy a 'proper?' solution, by this I mean specialised hardware. PFsense has had a few issues like randomly dropping out, but it has been fine for around 4 days now. My question is: Should I buy a Mikrotik HEX S and use the laptop for other things, or not buy a Mikrotik and instead buy a Dell Optiplex 3020 from Ebay and run SecurityOnion (https://github.com/Security-Onion-Solutions/securityonion) or pfELK (https://github.com/pfelk/pfelk) on it.

  Very cool, I was wondering if there was some way to monitor the HEX S using it's system logs and put that into an ELK stack, PFsense had this sort of thing (https://github.com/pfelk/pfelk) and it was very cool. But I wonder if I can do it with a Mikrotik.

  I really like using ELK stack for centralized logging of my home servers. pfelk Is a great jumping off point with plenty of documentation to get you started ingesting logs.

  I didn't end up using it because of cpu usage and disk usage but I was going to make some dashboards eventually, based on this https://github.com/pfelk/pfelk

  pfSense/OPNsense both allow for Netflow and Remote logging too. I currently send my logs to a ELK setup (https://github.com/pfelk/pfelk) and have also utilized the Netflow (https://github.com/robcowart/elastiflow). Tapping the connection for SELKS, Security Onion and/or Arkime would also provide some detection/analysis capability.
