one does not simply reboot a freebsd router

I’m moving from pfSense to Opensense after they decided to drop their home lab tier. Thank you for this integration!

Awesome to see this, have it up and running on day 2 of migration from pfsense to OPNsense. I only had pfsense for a week though so I’m really very new to having so much control of the home network.
Can this integration control the DNS Blocklist setting for Unbound DNS, instead of just the whole service?
Option is here:
/ui/unbound/dnsbl/index
Reason for this is that I built a nice script for my HA dashboard that would conveniently disable adblocking (via adbguard) in 5 minute increments for the odd time that we wanted it to be. I can set up adguard in OPNsense but I think keeping it all in system would be preferable if I can achieve the same thing using this integration.
Not implemented no. If you could open an issue on github I can track the feature request and eventually get around to it.
I have created a GitHub discussion item about this already, will that suffice?

Hi all…love this and very helpful in keeping track of what is going on and some minor controls. Has anyone tried to use this to track total upload/download volume as I would like to have a sense check against what my ISP is recording for monthly billing?
Would it be as simple as aggregating the inbytes_kilobytes_per_second & outbytes_kilobytes_per_second sensor data per day/week/month etc to get the download/upload totals?
Hi all 
Nice integration. I have some services with the same name (for example 5 times “dpinger”. I see if i activate the server status that i can stop start the first dpinger in my opnsense. Is it possible to do the same with the other dpingers?
Some of my services need some extra love and i would love to know from home assistant when they need attention and preferable also stop start them from there.
Can you open an issue on github to track that? I suspect the api is returning several and it may need some cleaning up in the integration.
Ok, done
I really appreciate your integration, firstly because it’s more responsive in updating device trackers than the built-in integration is.
I wonder how it’ll go when devices disappear from the network for longer than the arp cache time - will they just become ‘unavailable’? Also is there a way of adding known devices to the device tracker list while they’re not actually on the network? I know their MAC addresses and actually they have static leases from the OPNsense DHCP server, but because they’re not here right now they’re not in the arp cache so I can’t configure device tracker entities for them.
I am getting constant warnings in my HA logs that seem to come every few minutes.
/usr/local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/urllib3/connectionpool.py:1061: InsecureRequestWarning: Unverified HTTPS request is being made to host '192.168.0.1'. Adding certificate verification is strongly advised. See: https://urllib3.readthedocs.io/en/1.26.x/advanced-usage.html#ssl-warnings warnings.warn(
But I definitely untickt’d the verify SSL setting when setting this up. How do I make this go away? Any assistance on this is appreciated.
is there anything new about this issue on Github? I tried to install it after moving from pfsense to opnsense, but also get this error when configuring:
Did you hear anything new? It looks pretty quiet on GitHub.
last month was the latest release i can see
Somehow one cant find it in HACS o.o
you have to manually add the github repo?
Yes, if you scroll down and look at the Readme in github there is a section called HomeAssistant_integration that describes the steps.
Now there is a big problem with device tracking
Any chance to implement a switch for pppoe connection?
It would be great for keeping attackers away everytime they try someting, Like, connect/disconnect, in order for the dynamic external IP to get changed.
But something not through service netif restart because it is a very slow process… I better restart the router, it is faster. And not with ifconfig wan down/up as well, because it is not changing the external IP
Thank you!
I really like this integration. I have a couple of feature requests that could make this even better.
I think the easier of the two is entities for the CPU temperature of the opnSense box.
The more difficult feature is some way to notify the user when a device that is not in the DHCP table has joined the network. I have my network set up with static DHCP assignments for all the devices I know about. I have a Node-Red flow set up right now that pings the DHCP space round and round and sends me a notification when something new pops up in that space. I think something a lot more elegant could work with access to the DHCP assignment table.
Anyway, great work and thanks a lot for making this awesome tool.
There seems to be a problem with the newest OPNSense 24.7 release.
The extension always tells me that it has a “wrong config” inside OPNSense.
Tried to reinstall it, no success.
EDIT!
Think this project is dead?
Last activity on the Github repo is months ago.
Here is a little workaround for the latest opnsense update: Plugin failing to load after upgrading to OpenSense 24.7 · Issue #143 · travisghansen/hass-opnsense (github.com)
Not sure if it will work in your case. It’s a shame that this repo isnt as well maintained anymore.
