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.
