Model: ER7206 (TL-ER7206)  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 2.1.2 Build 20240324 Rel.46738

I could not find a post on this here, so looking for some help.

 

My setup:

  • ER7206 v2 (latest stable version)
  • OC200 Controller (latest stable version)
  • Syslog server also setup and working correctly
  • Country block correctly setup and working under the ACL section of the controller.

 

Does the current firmware for ER7206 (or OC200) log when a website is visited and subsequently blocked by an ACL rule?  

 

I would like to see when websites are blocked but cannot find the information anywhere in the logs, either from the syslog server or the OC200 log directly.

Hi,

 

I know it's not much, the ony thing I've found (from this year) regarding similar issue for more logs of ACLs is:

https://community.tp-link.com/en/business/forum/topic/663420?replyId=1348478

 

Here is a FAQ of How-To enable this mode:

https://www.tp-link.com/pl/support/faq/4276/

 

But as I can see, that's an instruction for Omada Pro. Guess that's not available for standard Omada setup yet.

 

Please, let me know if that's what you were looking for and if that helps :)

 

Cheers

Thanks for the idea.  Not looking at doing DPI since the overhead on the WAN performance is too much.  When DPI is enabled, my speed tests drop from 930Mbps to ~300Mbps.

 

My main issue is just knowing when my ACL rule is hit so I can adjust it as needed when certian websites wont load and help troubleshoot.

Thanks for the info! I dont have the MSP mode option (not sure I would do it anyway).

 

Hopefully a future FW release will add/fix this.  It seems like a basic request to monitor an ACL rule so you know what's going on in your network.
