      Hello everyone,

      I have setup a PFsense VM two month ago and It's work very well.

      Last week, I was setup GeoIP blocking with pfBlockerNG and some app was blocked by GoeIP location.

      I have setup a accept floating rule and put on the top of the listand it work well.
      But after a few time (maybe one hour) this rule was automaticaly setup on down of the list.

      Do you know why ?

      Here some informaton about my system :

      System	KVM Guest
      BIOS	Vendor: SeaBIOS
      Release Date: Tue Apr 1 2014
      Version	2.5.2-RELEASE (amd64)
      built on Fri Jul 02 15:33:00 EDT 2021
      FreeBSD 12.2-STABLE
      
      pfBlockerNG-devel	net	3.1.0_1
      

      Many thanks for your help.

        Go into the pfBlockerNG settings and change the "Rule Order" to prefer your pass rules.

          @xillion Alternatively what we do is to create all pfBlocker geo lists as Alias Native format, which creates the alias but doesn't create a rule. Then create your own rules using the alias, in whatever order you want.

          Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
          When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to reboot, or more depending on packages, and device or disk speed.
