Well, I'd expect a firewall to filter traffic, actually.

I'm not sure that less security by default is a good idea. Especially via changing a long time Linux default. If you don't want a firewall, why install and start it? -- Regards, Feri. _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
