Isolate two interfaces firewall rules not working

viragomann

Per default there is no access between network interfaces anyway.

Protocol: IPv4

IPv4 is not a protocol, but the IP version!
If you select any for protocol it should work and disallow ping likewise.

LAN is 10.20.30.0/24
WLAN is 10.20.33.0/24

from lan to wlan, i am able to ping a device from

10.20.30.100

to

10.20.33.2

under firewal rules it says

TCP/IP Version {dropdown menu} Select the Internet Protocol version this rule applies to

i just copied and pasted it.

Did you change your rules to be the way i described them?
Can you show a screenshot of your current rules?

mskenderian

yes i did, i will send a screenshot in the morning.
but even with no rules shouldnt it block it. since there is an invisible deny all rule.

GruensFroeschli

Yes if you have no rules at all then everything should be blocked.

mskenderian

here are the screenshots with no rules, it should block the traffic from one interface (subnet) to another (subnet)

i will post the other screen shots with the rules, but regardless it should not allow u to ping unless some of my other settings are wrong.

I don't see any screenshots

On the LAN and the WLAN tab you obviously have the "default allow LAN/WLAN to any rule".
This is not "no rule".

mskenderian

wow how did i not see that, ok will change it to lan to wan - Default allow lan to Wan rule.

Don't forget to clear states if you're going to immediately test after making changes like this.

mskenderian

yes i did, perfect. thank you both for your help.

A rule like "Pass protocol any source LANnet destination WANnet" will not be much use, because you actually want to allow traffic from LANnet to "the big bad public internet", not just traffic to your WANnet.
So you will likely want rules like:

"Pass protocol any source LANnet destination not WLANnet"
"Pass protocol any source WLANnet destination not LANnet"

or some other combination of pass and block rules to achieve a similar effect.
