Pfsense 2.0 B3 rule with port alias don't work

tbaror · Jul 28, 2010, 12:01 PM

Hello All,

We currently using for testing env Pfsense 2.0 b3 26/07 release.

the firewall is dialing outside adsl line , users are able to surf with defualt LAN rule , i have created FW port Alias with the office communication needed like 80,443 etc..
But as soon as i want to limit port open range and created a rule with following alias enforced, no communication is able only when i change the rule from port alias to ANY.
what did i do wrong please advise the right way to enforce it.

Thanks

Probably because you're blocking DNS. Those services likely work, you just don't have DNS to reach them.

Thanks for the replay, i was thinking that the DNS settings and dns forwarder is enough no need for further rule adjustment .

Any way i created default block rule and activated log on it and found out that the HAVP transparent porxy blocked on the designated port which is 3128 , i just added this port to alias i have created and now its works smooth.
Thanks
