Rule not working, please help
-
Hi,
I have a very simple rule. I want it to- block anything to the firewall & anything to an RFC1918 destination.
- list itemallow DNS to the firewall
- list itemallow internet
So I made this, but it will not allow DNS to work. What do I miss please? I tried to rearrange, but good practice is to start with blocking rules, right? Then allow what you need?
Thanks

@furom The rule for dns should be on top.
By blocking all trafic to the pfsense will include your local dns -
@lcbbcl Agreed, makes sense when put like that. I somehow got the idea that I could first block everything and then open this, but obviously got it wrong. Thanks for quick response!
