The "old" version didn't need this switch - what is "switched off"
(or on) by it?
Can I still do NAT for other optional interfaces when I enable it?
How it should work is when it's unchecked, everything passes through
the bridged interface, ignoring any firewall rules you have on the
interface. When it's checked, the firewall rules you put on bridged
interfaces are obeyed.
Why is it there? Disabling firewalling on a bridged interface when
you just want to pass everything will make it pass traffic faster.
OK.
BTW: I had loaded my old ruleset into the new install (really only
aliases and filtering-rules, no VPN, no traffic-shaper etc.), without
enabling this option - but the strange thing was that on the WAN-side,
the link to the switch didn't come up.
I tried a different NIC, with the same result.
Is this expected?
cheers,
Rainer
