      I have a GRE tunnel over IPSEC running on of my pfsense's
      The tunnel is working fine, but I'm not able to block traffic on this tunnel.
      When I ping a server from a network of pfsense 1 located on a network of pfsense 2 I get a reply.
      When I do a packet log on the GRE interface I see the ping request and reply, so that's working.
      But when I want to block this traffic, nothing happened.
      I setup a block any to any on the GRE interface (protocol any), but still I get an ping reply.
      I have setup a floating firewall rule where I block any to any (direction any) on the GRE interface together with a block any to any on the GRE interface. but still I get a ping reply.
      What's going on here? Is there something I did wrong? Is this a bug?
