Question about log file entry

I’m hoping that someone will be able to tell me what the following log file entry means and if I need to do anything about it. I am receiving several similar entries every second on many of my AP’s

May/24/2008 11:32:27 firewall info INPUTFW:input: in:wlan2 out:[none], src-mac 00:19:21:4b:51:85, proto UDP,10.14.0.8:138->10.14.0.255:138:,len244

Any help would be appreciated!

it means that you have a rule in your firewall with ACTION=LOG =) disable it - and ou will not see these entries =)

I found the rule and disabled it but I wonder if I need to be concerned about it. It wound be nice to know what the entry meant.

add chain=input action=jump jump-target=hackertraps comment=“Jump to
hackertraps chain "trap Hacker Behavior"” disabled=no
add chain=input action=log log-prefix=“INPUTFW:” comment=“”
disabled=yes

it simply logs all packets to your router itself, you don’t need to bother with this

Thank you Chupaka!

I disabled it in all my AP’s,
One less thing to look at ;.)

I recommend only adding firewall rules that you know the meaning of :slight_smile:

I payed somone to setup the routers firewall rules!

that’s a situation where “rule comments” would help a lot. we teach in the trainings that you should always add commments everywhere in RouterOS, so you (and other people) know why each rule was added. just a tip
