    Do my rules appear to be sane?

      I should add that I have a floating block + don't log for IPv6 which is why my final allow any is only IPv4.

        Your very first rule matches everything so nothing beneath that does anything at all.

          When I edit that rule, it says Destination: OPT7.
          It looks like it didn't remove that rule when I removed the interface.

          It wasn't a wildcard.  The blocks still worked, so it looks like it was just UI.
          Other than that, are they sane?

            Ah, yeah in that case it wouldn't have been in the ruleset at all.

            Other than that, seems sane.

              Ok, cool, thanks.
              I have a few oddities in NAT (such I have the firewall listening for HTTPs on a nonstandard port, but an internal NAT rule for port 443.
              I wanted to make sure I had the LAN side of the rules looking ok (as the NAT rules are working exactly how I wanted).

                I redid my LAN rules once I found out I could nest aliases, could I possibly as for just a quick spot check again to rule out any brainfarts?
                (blacked out port at the top is publicly accessible and non-standard (hurrah security through obscurity!))
