Allow specific ports on LAN2
-
hello,
i setup pfsense with 1 WAN and 2 LANs, i managed to have internet connectivity on LAN2 by copying the default rule from LAN1, which is good… however, the default rule allow all ports to pass... i wanted to restrict all outgoing ports from LAN2 and allow only specific ports (e.g. 80, 443, 110, 25 etc.) i created an alias for the these ports which i called "allowedPorts"... but when i altered the firewall rule on LAN2 specifying only the allowedPorts alias, no outgoing connections seems to work... i cant even browse the internet, but it works when i enable the default ruleset... my new ruleset is stated below:
TCP/UDP LAN2 net * * allowedPorts *
i also tried specifying each ports instead of using the alias, but still NO GO... any ideas on this type of situation, guys?
thank you very much in advance, hoping to hear from you soon.isonski
