      hello,

      i've installed pfsense today the first time and it works great. the question is, how is the standard-reaction of the firewall in case of packets which are going from wan to lan. there is no rule configured except the initial one.

      thanks,

      crave

          @crave: If what you want is to see the currently active PF ruleset (as well as some other info) you could have a look at http(s)://<pfsense-ip>/status.php as described here: http://m0n0.ch/wall/security.php.</pfsense-ip>
