Hi,
I am unable to get IP's to block via the Firewall. I also have Geoblock enabled for testing. Let's say I block .cn area. I see the blocking happening in the Firewall log but I can still ping the IP that has been blocked in the log !
I'm also trying to block a single IP on the internet. I have spent days trying to get this to work ! It just does not seem to block. With IPtables, bang I can drop anything within 2 seconds.
I have setup a rule in WAN - Direction In - Source (either the alias or the IP address as a single IP block) and default everything else. I have tried single IP's, entire subnets, change source and destination. I have tried the block on WAN on LAN and floating. The IP I am blocking does not get blocked and I am still able to connect to it (in this case an RDP server). It's now 4am I and I am STILL trying to get this running !! It just dosn't seem to work.
Is there something that I am missing ? Is there an issue with the Outgoing NAT perhaps ?
OK, I think I got it. I had to make an outbound rule. I read that outbound rules arn't needed but in this case it indeed was needed.
Other than that its been running great !
