      Hi,

      I'm using pfsense with a wireless card on a WRAP board. The WLAN is bridged with the LAN.

      I want to black all HTTPS (443) traffic from the wireless network to my WRAP board. So it wouldn't be possible to access the web interface from the WLAN network.

      I made this rule on the WLAN interface:

      Block - TCP - Source: from WLAN network any port - Dest: IP of WRAP port 443
      Allow any any

      Now I can access the web interface, how is that possible?

        There are 2 options at system>advanced:

        Enable filtering bridge

        If you have not enabled the filtering bridge traffic between the 2 bridged interfaces is not filtered.

        Disable webGUI anti-lockout rule 

        This rule is invisible and prevents from shutting down access to the webgui. If you are sure your rules are correct and you don't lock yourself out completely disable this hidden rule.
