      Hello,

      When I filter a FW log, say for port number 25, I also get results of ports like 2525 and 32625... why is that?
      Yes, I know both contains 25, but I asked for 25 specifically.

      Is there a way to overcome this? (without regex...)

        Those fields use regex matching, so the answer is to anchor the regex: To match only port 25, use ^25$.
