Configuration problem firewall

Hi guys,
I am new here and need your help,
I use IPfire as my main router and have configured it so that a certain PC may only connect to certain Ip’s but after some time these settings no longer work and he connects everywhere until I restart IPFire then all configurations work again.
What can be the reason please help.
Setting: PC1 is in group10 this may connect only with IP addresses from Germany.
This rule is on position 1.

Thanks for your help.

Hello,
yes under Host I entered the PC with IP then I created a group name WS02 Windows here I then added the host and under Location Groups I created a group Germany and added Germany and Austria in the firewall the configuration was done as follows.

After that rule is a rule that denies all traffic, I suppose.
So the processing is:

  • PC of group WS02 Windows sends packet to a destination
  • if destinations is in location group Deutsch-Gruppe , allow transmission
  • drop packet ( for all packets not accepted yet )

yes exactly the way I configured it

Hi,
now I noticed that Ipfire deactivates the outgoing firewall rules after about 24h and none of the outgoing rules take effect until a restart what am I doing wrong or what can this be?
Please help

Hi,

now I noticed that Ipfire deactivates the outgoing firewall rules after about 24h

there is no component doing this in IPFire. Are there any log messages around the time if - whatever happens here - this takes effect?

Thanks, and best regards,
