FW Rule Wireless to WAN?

[seh2000]

Hi All,

I try to create a rule that allows Wireless Traffic to WAN (Internet), but somehow I must have gotten something wrong.

Configuration:
re0 = WAN, re1 = LAN, re2 = VoIP, re3 = Wireless

When I set up the rule as per attached screenshot [ pfSense FW Rules Wireless 01 07212011 SH ] traffic is flowing
When I set up the rule as per attached screenshot [ pfSense FW Rules Wireless 02 07212011 SH ] traffic is not flowing

The difference is in 1st rule I use "any" for destination, and for 2nd rule I use "WAN Net" for destination.

How come?

Thanks - Steen

Any is Any –> The internet.
WAN-net is the subnet immediately in front of the WAN.

Hi GF,
Thanks for the feedback!
I think I get it, just I did not like the "any" and I assume WAN net was the Internet.  :-[
In summary the 1st rule in my case is correct where I want to have ful access to the Internet from a Wireless point somewhere in my Home Office - right?
