Incoming firewall access - when using standard networks

Security Firewall Rules
1

Hi

When I choose standard networks as source it is listed as a “firewall rule” and not “Incoming”

But if I choose Source address and with the same subnet as the standard network it is listed as “Incoming”

I guess this is be design, I just don’t understand it

Thanks

Hi,

hm, I guess I know what you are meaning. To rule out misunderstandings, could you post an example screenshot here?

Thanks, and best regards,

Hi,

this behaviour strongly reminds me of bug #12265. :expressionless:

There is a patch available for fixing this, but that breaks some other scenarios. Unfortunately, this kind of got lost in the whole mailing list traffic…

I will raise this at the next monthly telephone conference. There are some other firewall CGI oddities to be clarified, so I guess this makes sense.

Thanks, and best regards,
