Title: 605L firewall doesn't work
Post by: joejack on May 26, 2015, 01:55:40 AM

All,

can't seem to get the firewall working correctly on this router. I tried creating a default deny rule and it doesn't seem to work.

I even tried blocking/denying this rule to test:
source: LAN
startip 10.0.0.2
endip 10.0.0.254

dest: WAN
startip 1.1.1.1
endip  223.255.255.255 (was the highest ip address i can assign; if i try 224.0.0.0, it says dest ending ip address not valid)

port: all
start 1
end 65535

tested with an email application that uses port 993 and traffic is still flowing through!

i tried blocking 443 as a second rule to test and the same result. check some ssl/tls sites (google) and was still able to pull it up under https.

seems like only the first rule is valid and the rest are ignored.
