      Hi, got a LAN with a bridge (one local 192.168.1.10 and one remote 192.168.1.20)from one location to another, and we share the same LAN.
      I need to block the traffic that came across the bridge, but need to be able to connect from local to the other side of the bridge.
      I cannot separate the LAN, it is possible to make a rule to filter the traffic incoming from the 192.168.1.10 and 192.168.1.20?
      Any advice is really appreciated, please link me a guide or article.

        You can block only if the traffic is destined for the other side of the firewall. In your case, I think you need to specify source IP and destination IP so you don't end up blocking everything.
        For your bridge, did you disable filtering (the firewall) in the advanced properties?

          Hi sorry for the delayed reply, it means that adding a NIC and connecting the 192.168.1.10  local access point of the bridge to the NIC, I can filter the traffic that came in the LAN passing by the 192.168.1.10?

          so I can make a firewall rule that says block interface OPT source 192.168.1.10  destination all -  that block all traffic caming from the ap.
          and other rules that make the traffic pass for certain Ip.
          is this correct?

          about the bridge I haven't disabled the filtering.
