Title: Specified destination port in a firewall rule is ignored and set to any instead
Post by: Sevan on June 04, 2019, 03:05:56 pm

When creating a firewall where a destination port is specified it appears that upon saving the port is ignored and the default value of any is used instead.

My steps are
Add a new rule
Specify TCP or UDP (haven't tried other protocols)
Set a destination to port (either from the existing entries in the drop down or specify a custom port)
Provide a description
Save

Generated rule is a wildcard rules with the destination set to any.

To rule out my browser, I've tested Safari, Chrome and Firefox. Same results on all three browsers.
I've reproduced the issue on a stock 19.1.4 install and a fully up to date 19.1.8 install.

If you specify a port range from ANY to SPECIFIC, the range is still ANY.

You should specify range from: SPECIFIC to SPECIFIC.

See attached screenshot.

Wow, totally skipped the destination is section is for specifying ranges.
I'd assumed it was for specifying a port & using notation to imply ranges (and ignored the left hand field).
Thanks for highlighting my mistake, much appreciated :)
