Re: Blocked external IP

My firewall ... I'm no expert. Default rules with additions. The question is simple - do you need to use a chain in the '' Bogon '' Input section or not? Does anyone use this at all? /ip firewall filter add action=accept chain=input comment=\ "defconf: accept established,related,untracked"...
