How to Identify Routerboard for Firewall Rules ?

RouterOS General
1

Hi Folks,

is there a direct way to identify the Firewall itself in the rules we could use ?
Or will I have to generate an address list with all local IP-Addresses - to be able to use the firewall ?

Greetings!

It is the “input” chain rules that apply to the RouterBoard (firewall) as you call it. Those are the routes into the OS. “Output” controls outbound requests, and “forward” controls the throughput.

Guosh … You’re right …
It’s been 7? Years I have not struggled on the cli with iptables/ipchains …

Thx for the heads up …
