{Complete} Timebased Rules

BuddhaChu

Reloaded with the 3-27 snapshot (built after issue #3 above was fixed). Something happened and now the Schedule column is missing for the two rules that are added with a checkbox (Block private & bogon networks).

That should be fixed. Please try most recent snapshot.

Reloaded with the 3-27 snap with a timestamp of 2007-Mar-27 23:23:10 and the issue is still there.

The whole < td >< /td > section is missing for the Schedule column. See attached pic for the HTML code relating to that page.

Not sure if the snapshot server is broken, but the latest sources show me:

I've duplicated this. Will fix shortly.

Hi,

this looks like a really niceaddition, thanks to all involved (the programmers as well as the person paying the bill).

I'm not sure how to test this, but do you have any ideas what will happen if a rule is scheduled for a time that doesn't exist?
I'm refering to daylight saving time.
What happens if something should be disabled at 2:30am every Sunday night, but there is no 2:30 on one Sunday a year?
Also the other way, if a rule is only active between 2am and 2:30am on Sundays, will it be active twice when the extra hour is added?

As I'm not paying for it, so I'm not asking for a special way to handle this, all I would like to know is what is the intendet way daylight saving will be handled?

Thanks for a cool addition to a cool firewall product,

Christian

Confirmed the missing schedule column is fixed.

sdale: Nice fix for not hitting the "Add Time" button on the schedule page. Even though I'm familiar with the interface now, I forgot to hit the Add Time button and the msgbox dialog helped me out.

Hello,
very special thanks BuddhaChu for testing it and very very special thanks to "Scott´s" for coding…great

Issue #1 #2 from BuddhaChu is open
when i choose multiple days, for example 10 days of month, i think, a line break is missing (Screenshot)
for me it would be nice, when the date/time picker starts with Monday at the left.... :)
Problem: a couple days brings "grimbelfixe" to the description, when you edit and save a second time
Problem: when you stay in the schedule maks and have more than one configured range, and you want to edit one, click this and click a second also without saving the first one, uups, then the logic is a little bit confused the a first range disappeared.

I think, you should only one range to edit at the same time. A second edit is not allowed, before the first one are not saved.

A litte bit more in a 1 or 2 hours, also a posting to the rule features.

I have the same behaviour

Hello,

1.) What is with time overlaps in the configured ranges?

2.) I have created a passing rule "icmp allowed to WAN" from the schedule 15:30- 15:45. The Rule is created on 15:20 Uhr. At this time no schedule is set on the rule. The Ping is OK. Now, i disabled the Rule (green arrow), nothing happens… Then I kill the states and all works fine.

At 15:25 i change the rule, enabled and a schedule with one configured range from 15:30 to 15:45. Save and all runs fine. At 15:30 +-/ one minute, the schedule runs active, but whe the time is over, nothings happens.

I edit and save the rule without changes, so now time is really over and the ping is dead.....

Ups, i am barred from my testmachine. To many schedules on the ruleset with no activity…..
It is possible to expansion the "console setup" with anything as "delete all schedules from rules"....

Hello Scott,
a second test, simply with an icmp-rule to the wan interface. It looks like good, but also the start time and the kill time has a time delay from 5 - minutes. Time Zone difference? or the code behind the gui ….

See the screenshot for example- Start time in the range is 18:30, the ping reply is starting 18:36 Uhr. Also the same with killing states at the expiration of the range.

We reload the rules every 15 minutes from bootup. So it will process the rules at different times depending on when the firewall booted up.

heiko

OK, so i have a maximum difference time-delay between reality and configured ranges by 15 minutes?

Currently it is about +5 / -5 depending on bootup. I can look at moving this to cron for finer control if you would like me to.

heiko

OK, so you can do…. No postings from me for the next 5 minutes... ;D

Alright. I'll work on it in a bit. Beyond this and the bugs that sdale is working on, are there any others? It seems to work rather well.
