      Netgate 1100 with 23.09-RELEASE and pfBlockerNG-devel 3.2.0_7:

      After upgrading pfBlocker yesterday found today these log entries below. What is this rule and is it related to the new pfBlocker version?

      Nothing should pass inbound from WAN.

        @pfsjap take a look at the full rules

        https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/firewall/pf-ruleset.html

        And grep for that number.. If not in your current rules, then it could be a rule that was deleted.

          @johnpoz Didn't find anything by that number (which equals -1, btw) and don't understand how it could be a deleted rule. I mean, where would such a rule come from, I certainly have not made it. Device was rebooting on 10:13:39.

            huh.. The @number would be the ID, etc. 4294967295

            There was a bug related to that number
            https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/12872

            I am using 23.09 with 3.2.0_7 pfblock (but I don't have it create any rules) I only use it for native aliases it creates that I use in my rules.

            Do all your log entries other than rfc and bogon show that?

            Example I see like this in my log, if you click the little X you should get more info about the rule

              Nope, log has been very quiet since I disabled logging of implicit default rules and my main firewall Netgate 6100 is behind 1100. These two 4294967295 entries are the first I've seen (that I remember, at least).

              I do get the info popup from older block entries, but nothing (empty) from the two pass entries.
