[pfSense Support] Linux -> pfsense questions

[Craig Silva]

I have in the past used iptables on Debian. I have recently aquired a wrap with pfsense on it.   Just trying to come to terms with the differences.   So if someone could help with some answers to questions I haven’t been able to glean from the docs (references to parts of the docs with relevant info also appreciated):   Are there any example rule sets for a standard type firewall without the default rule that allows all lan sourced traffic (if there is such a thing) for a wan, lan and dmz type firewall? iptables tracks the attributes new, established and related in relation to connections – does pfsense do this “automatically”? I only had a brief look at pf documentation as it was at the command line level and I couldn’t map to the GUI rules – is it worth while going back to the pf docs which leads on to the next question what are the defaults built in to pfsense? Related to the first question – do you need a rule to allow return traffic from an established connection?   TIA   Craig   ---------------------------------- Craig Silva. IT Manager.
