Re: [pfSense] Multiple DMZs isolated from each other

2017-06-26 Thread Jim Spaloss
The rule(s) that allow internet access are the "Allow to Any" rule(s). This could be accomplished as one rule on a floating or interface group ruleset. (Allow any from any to any). The trick is to block the things that you don't want the DMZ to have access to first. I also use an alias to keep

I've got exactly this situation. My "tech bench" has 26 ports that are all completely isolated from each other, with a very strict outbound ruleset. This is to prevent an infected machine from infecting others on the bench. To simplify the rules for the interfaces, I added all of the DMZ

Ubiquiti Unifi. I switched to them from Engenuis for several clients. Price point is similar to Engenuis and they use a software based controller (you need to have that installed on some PC in the enviromment.) Signal quality is good. On Jul 17, 2015 9:45 AM, Chuck Mariotti cmario...@xunity.com

If you're interested in just silencing the noice from that particular device, create a block (or reject) rule that matches the source IP with logging disabled on that rule. I often do this on my WAN interfaces to keep NetBIOS noise from filling up my logs. On Feb 23, 2015 4:35 PM, Chris Buechler

I am running 3CX with PFSense in several installations. Are you using Advanved Outbound NAT with static mappings to your PBX? I usually need to do this for SIP (UDP:5060) stun (UDP:5090) and RTP (UDP:9000-9050) in order to make the 3CX firewall checker happy. On Feb 13, 2015 4:02 PM, Tiernan

[pfSense] Can't access some secure sites, and GWGroup/IPSec Issues

2014-04-21 Thread Jim Spaloss
Hello all, I have a strange problem. Over the weekend, I replaced an older M0n0wall installation that has been faithfully serving me for several years with a PFSense installation on a Soekris net6501. I had installed 2.1 on the flash, and imported the config from the M0n0wall box (which worked

OK, so I found the solution, or at least a workaround to my bigger issue. It seems that the issues disappear when I check the Clear invalid DF bits instead of dropping the packets checkbox under System: Advanced: Firewall and NAT. This gave me reason to scour through my old m0n0wall config, and

Carlos, You may want to try enabling the DMZ option (if it's available) on the ISP's router and directing all traffic to the wan address of the PFSense box. I've run into the same issue with Comcast business class routers. They're very light on features and I've seen some firmware versions that
