General Discussion / Firewall pass rules don't work
« on: March 26, 2023, 04:35:17 pm »
Hi,
I'm trying to use the OPNsense firewall. When I use Block rules everything works as expected (for example if I block everything except 100.100.100.100, all of the traffic will be blocked except this IP).
But when I block everything and use the pass rule to allow 100.100.100.100, the packet is allowed (as I can see in the logs), but I get no response. The pass rule is set to quick and I can see it in the logs. I made a pass rule to allow the specific IP to communicate inbound (not only unbound), but there is no log for the inbound packet (it's like the router "absorbed" it in the unbound rule).
Thank you in advance!
