      Hello fellow Netgate community,

      Can someone please help?

      I have an issue with blocking layer 2 traffic on 23.09.01.

      Goal I want the Guest pcie mini wifi card 10.0.0.0/24 to not be able to send layer 2 traffic to the AP secure side 192.168.1.0/27

      This worked in the 23.05.01

      Does anyone have an example of this if I add my default blocks now I get locked out of the GUI they worked before.

      Am I doing something wrong here? These are different broadcast domains I want to add a rule that says block all OPT1 layer 2 traffic to anything else. I just want that traffic to go to the wan and forget about it.

      Any default block I add stops all traffic but I have all the IP addresses accounted for all the subnets I am stumped here.

      If I have 2 different broadcast domains one the PCIE mini card and the other the AP plugged into the marvel switch what is different in 23.09.01 where I can't add my default blocks anymore?

        This seemed to resolve all my issues changing it to address and not subnet. I have my ARP storm protection back it seems.... I wonder what the difference is between address and subnet.

        You can not enter in anything with address also...

          The rule numbers do not change with the added blocks so I do not think it seems them
