TV Box OPNSense Firewall block its connection

[peterwkc]

Dear all forumers, I bought the latest evpad tv box  and the firewall block the connection due to have virus/malware from server. Is there any method to use the firewall with Evpad? How to bypass specific LAN ip address in opnsense firewall? Or disable firewall for specific LAN IP address?

I tried to disable all others LAN and captures trafiic using Wireshark but could not found port that are blocked. That why I rather disable the firewall for specific IP address. Some say using Upnp but this is security weakness.

What do you mean by "disable firewall"? OPNsense does not do malware detection, so it can hardly block anything based on that.

Are you using IPS? Then probably better ask in the correct subforum.

Disable firewall means disable firewall rules on the specific LAN IP address. I do have suricata IPS enabled. Let me try disable it and see. Thx for your suggestion.

You mean create an "allow" rule for that particular IP address? You cannot disable the firewall. OPNsense is your firewall. You can of course allow anything out either in general or for specific adresses. But "disable the firewall" would mean disable all paxket filtering and NAT in OPNsense. There is a global switch for that.

Still puzzled about what you mean.
