"Any"

natethegreat05
Quick question-


Here is what I have... Packet filter is set from any source, to any destination, over any service.

Normally I wouldn't consider letting any service go anywhere over any port, but with astaro, does the "any" option just let my DEFINED services through?

In other words, will the "any service" option let ANY service come through, EVEN the ones I HAVE NOT defined?

    Any means any, although if you're using private IP's internally, the traffic won't go anywhere without DNAT or SNAT.

    If you just want to allow any OUTGOING traffic, you can do:
    Source: Internal Networks
    Dest: any
    service: any

    Why wouldn't Source Internet Network, Protocol ANY, Destination External Network NOT WORK?  Where as changing External Network to ANY as the destination work?  I'm trying to figure out the logic of it.
    Thanks in advanced

    Coz External network is just the firewalls external IP/range.

    Whereas if you are browsing the net say, the IP could be anything just about.

    Any= Any network or Any service. (Not just defined ones).
