        I realize that some rules are essentially unnecessary. I was just trying everything.

            @linuxgae Your rule order in OPT6 is wrong.
            The clue is the first column showing States. You can see 2/ 90KB of traffic, but the other 2 rules have 0 states / 0 Bytes of traffic, so those rules are never used, this is because your first rule is FORCING all the traffic out WAN_DHCP which you have set as the gateway, regardless of the destination IP
            This corresponds exactly to the problem you are describing.
            To fix it:
            Move the OPT6 -> LAN rule to the top.
            FYI: You don't usually need to set the gateway in the rule, the firewall will figure that out on its own through the routing table. Forcing the gateway is only used if you want it to ignore the routing table and use that interface specifically.

              Thanks so much.
              I would never would have figured this out myself.
              I used the out-of-box rules generated for LAN as a template. I never would have guessed that firewall rules would affect
              routing.
              Again, thanks for the help.

                    Nice! You have any plans of stacking it? Any play time with RSPAN? Prob not if you only have the 1..

                      no plan to stack for the moment, i'm using only 10 port and i have nothing so important to justify another 350 $
                      I've only had it for 10 days. i'm still learning all it's functions

                          SPAN - switch port analyzer..
                          @johnpoz what would you put as span, do you have it configured on your sg300 ?

                            No span is local, talking about RSPAN - this was added in the 350 line.

                            rspan.png

                            I have done local span on my sg300-28 but would of been cool to be able to span a port that is in my av cabinet on a sg300-10 to a port on my -28 which is on my desk next to me ;)

                            Would need 2nd switch that also supports rspan - but could be a very useful feature.
