      Hi guys,

      I have  a quick question, I have some rules in my LAN interface and I want to know if that rule affect my other VLAN interface rules for example:
      In my LAN I have a rules that block some IPs that we have detect as attack to us so if I create a VLAN 1 that is for my normal users my question is if I have to create also in VLAN 1 rule or it will take the LAN rules over or I have to create the rule to protect from those ips in all my interfaces?

      Thanks in advance.

        It depends. If you have created firewall rules for the lan interface then it is not inherited by vlans. But if you are running captive portal running then vlans will also inherit it. I think same goes true with squid (not very sure).
        I hope this helps.
