Enabling IDS/IPS stops internet on interface

[Coarch]

Zentyal 7.0

Enabling the IDS/IPS module on the outgoing ethernet interface disables internet traffic.  Has anyone seen this happen before?  Any ideas?

Hello,

I have a similar problem. Zentyal 7.0, suricata 6.0.2, zentyal-ips 7.0.0, used virtual machine and br0 and eth0 interfaces

I installed the zentyal-ips package and it also installed the dependency suricata package. I enabled IDS/IPS and setup it on br0 then it disable all traffic (services) over LAN and suricata.service doesn't run and zentyal-ips module disabled.

When I enabled IDS/IPS and setup it on eth0 then LAN traffic enabled but suricata.service doesn't run and zentyal-ips module "Running".

I removed zentyal-ips and suricata then I install they again.
root@srv04:~# apt-get --purge remove zentyal-ips
root@srv04:~# apt-get --purge remove suricata
root@srv04:~# rm -rf /var/log/suricata
root@srv04:~# rm -rf /etc/suricata   
root@srv04:~# rm -rf /etc/default/suricata

root@srv04:~# apt-get install zentyal-ips

I checked suricata status
root@srv04:~# systemctl status suricata.service

I don't understand why it used suricata.yaml when /etc/default/suricata includes SURCONF=/etc/suricata/suricata-debian.yaml parameter.

I enabled IDS/IPS on Webadmin but not setup it any interface and suricata.service exited and doesn't use SURFCONF parameter

Hey guys, I seem to be having somewhat the same issues.

After enabling Suricata, I cannot login to Zentyal remotely. After disabling it, I have connectivity restored.

I wanted to confirm that this is not a conflict with RADIUS?
