Firewall: Log Files - default template
«

Hi. Is there a way to set a default template for my firewall logs?
Reason I ask is that I have a bunch of noisy neighbors on my /24 who constantly hit me with UDP broadcast(?) traffic. Like 10 packets a second.
Which is making it pretty difficult to watch the logs for what's going on. I have made a template to block the external subnet and that works great. But I have to wait for the logs page to load each time and then select it. Plus there doesn't appear to be a way to set any template on the Dashboard Firewall Log widget.
Is there any way to set a default filter on the logs? Perhaps in a template that is selected by default.
I've tried googling and searching the forum for firewall log & default template but all I'm getting is results lots of other unrelated topics.
Thanks in advance.

I didn't find a solution to my issue. But it occurred to me that I can just set a new firewall wan rule at the top to capture traffic from those IPs and not log it.
I had to take the time to add the whole subnet other than my IP and the gateway. But, then, success! Now my default log view has useful entries again.
Though it would still be cool to have a default filter that shows up during Log View.
