      Hi,

      I have a WAN port and a LAN port.  On the LAN port I have connected my devices via a dumb switch.  I've created a firewall rule as follows:

      Action:  Block
      Disable:  False
      Interface:  LAN
      TCP/IP Version:  IPv4
      Protocol:  any
      Source:  (single host) 192.168.0.20/31
      Destination:  any

      However, if I watch my WAN traffic with Wireshark, I still see UDP traffic headed out to the internet.  I know this traffic is coming from 192.168.0.20 because if I watch the LAN side, I can see it's the only one sending to those internet IP addresses.

      Very confused :(

      Thanks,
      Kevin

        Please post a screenshot of your LAN Firewall Rules Tab.

          Yes!  Thank you for those links!

          I forgot about rule ordering  :o  Moved my rule, and reset the states table and all is well.

          Thanks,
          Kevin
