Hi:
I am ashamed to ask this silly 101 question, but I want to block a external IP address (a.b.c.d) from accesing my network.
I have this rule: chain=input action=drop src-address=a.b.c.d as I have read in many threads in this board.
However this does not block the user (it has been doing a port scan now for almost one day).
What am I missing?

Can you post the rest of your settings? Just to clarify, the port scan is against the router?
Post your export.

If you want to block the access to the network behind the router change chain=input to chain=forward. You also need to make sure that this rule is above the other rules that would let it pass.
Thanks for the answers.
What i did was to forward the ip to a empty IP. This did work.
