    ANY
    to any

    but why did not working when i put utorrent port [:S], also if i create rule for another user if he uncheck the proxy settings box, he will open all websites without any filtering[:S]

    thanks
  • That's outgoing; you need a firewall rule for the outgoing traffic also...

    source: 192.168.2.100 
    dest: ANY
    service: ANY UDP, or at least src:1024:65535/dst:6881
    ALLOW

    Note some Torrent clients (such as uTorrent) can set the source port so you don't have to use 1024:65535.

    Did you implement this rule?

  • Set firewall rules to match the following:

    Sources : Internal (Network). Or just configure a single IP.

    Services: Press the '+'. I named it Torrent. 6881 (TCP/UDP). DST is ready set up to 1:65535, so leave it be.

    Destination: Internet IPV4

    That should do it.
