      Then how do you explain from my first screen that the alias is on top and the .17 IP is on 3th line of rules. But that one blocks the traffic and the alias did not?

        User error. Not understanding what you are looking at. State established before the rule was in place. Some other rule passing the traffic.

        DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!

          So the state stays established even after a reboot? I can't believe that...

            No. The state was re-established after you rebooted because a firewall rule passed the traffic.

              I restored the firewall rules to an earlier date and rebooted the machine. The alias is still the same and now the .17 again gets access. How to find out what rule is the problem?pf1.jpg

                Find the state you think should not be there out of that. Post it.

                                  Right now the alias is working again and I can't get it to not work. I did nothing but now it is blocking. Sorry, I don't see the error there and will give it a try again in the future. Thanks for your help so far.

                                    What was rule 181 in that rule set? Inquiring minds want to know!

                                    DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!

                                      This is a rule that passed the traffic from one client on LAN to my Cable Modem interface:

                                        [ Inserted: pid 79204 State Creations: 0     ]
                                      @182(1417115627) pass in quick on igb4 inet from 192.168.1.0/24 to any flags S/SA keep state label "USER_RULE: Allow ALL IPv4"

                                        @mrsunfire said in Alias firewall block rule not blocked!:

                                        Does pfctl -vvsr | grep -A3 1526110841 show anything more?

                                          Are you mixing and matching current data with old?

                                            Right now the old config works. But I post it anyways:
