Does firewall works on mikrotik???

RouterOS Wireless Networking

Hello.

I am trying to block all activity to/ from some IPs but I have no results.

For ex:
chain=forward src-address=87.229.24.119 action=drop

chain=forward dst-address=87.229.24.119 action=drop

but there are again traffic from/ to this IP

I am asking, is Mikrotik’s firewall valid or not.

Or maybe the version that I have is not wright one (2.9.27)


Please let me know your comments regarding this issue.


Thank you in advance.

Firewall do work in Mikrotik. Make sure there are no other accept rules above your drop rules. You can move those two rules to the top to ensure full compliance.

Also, update to the latest revision.
