understanding firewall rules
-
I have set up security cameras and the recorders had 2 Ethernet ports, one for the cameras and one for the main network. There is no need to pass the RFC1918 addresses, as there's no reason for them to try to be routed.

Huh? The firewall block rule makes no sense in the video because they have no allows that would allow the access. They only have a single allow rule that allows access to the 192.168.5.5 address.
There is no point in creating block rules, unless you are putting them above a rule that would allow access because its wider open.. default is deny..
There is no point in creating more block rules, when that is default - the only time you need to block something is if you have a rule that would allow it because its an more open allow then you want.
