Hi Community,
i have a general question. I have some rules that allow internal network traffic to the internal network, like netbios for example. i now recognized that the traffic that is being sent to the UTM itself (which ist at 192.168.0.9) is being blocked. shouldn't the rule "ALLOW INTERNAL NETWORK --> NETBIOS --> INTERNAL NETWORK" include the traffic that is sent to the UTM itself? or do i have to explicitly include the INTERNAL ADDRESS into the rules as allowed targets? see picture below.
so, does this make sense or is this rule bulls....:
does this make any problems, if the internal address is not included in the sources and the targets of the rules, that only handle internal stuff? should i include the internal address always, when allowing traffic from internal to internal? i do not want to block out important internal things like internal dns resolution or lan traffic.
notes: 192.168.0.12 is my pc where i sit right now, 192.168.0.115 is my raspberry pihole adblocker that forwards dns requests from the utm, 192.168.0.9 is the utm internal address.
when i enable to rule from above in the picture, the traffic to the UTM is being allowed of course.
