Silencing Multicast Traffic in the Log

[chw0]

Hi, a entry with proto "pgm" and a static ip address appears every second in the firewall log (see attachment). I can't manage to create a rule that filters this entry. The "src"-IP already has full access.

Can anyone please point me in the right direction? Help

That's an experimental protocol, no idea why this particular device would use it:

But why don't you disable logging for that rule?

Hi Patrick, that's the strange thing. The specified rule (Rule No 189) has nothing to do with multicast and logging is not activated for her either. If i disable this rule, the log entry still appears - but this time with a different rule number.

I mean that is a standard "allow all" rule, so of course it also catches multicast destinations. Why do you log hits for your allow rules?

I do not have a activated rule, where logging is enabled. That's why I'm at such a loss 

Btw., "Log packets matched from the default pass rules put in the ruleset" in "Settings - Logging" is not enabled
