xg-210 blocking ssh on wan

greetings,

I can't seem to find a way to block ssh to the xg from the internet.

I was able to manually write the 2 line rule on the command line but of course that's very short lived.

How can I achieve blocking ssh from the internet?

This is a concern because I just noticed constant denials  of ssh requests coming to the firewall.

All were blocked of course but It's possible that someone may just happen to "guess" the password. So I want to block all requests before the password prompt even comes.

But I would also like to be able to ssh in myself using ssh keys and no password.

Is this scenario possible? And if so, how?

 

Thanks

iomari

  • Go to System -> Administration -> Device Access.

    Under Local Service ACL UNCHECK SSH access for WAN

    Then add a rule under Local Service ACL Exception Rule with the following settings:

    - Source Zone:WAN

    - Network/Host: Your public IP

    - Services: The services you want to access via the WAN (HTTPS (GUI), SSH, etc)

    - Action: Accept

    This should do the trick
