Can someone show me what a rule to allow outbound and inbound traffic from a specific IP for an ODBC connection from a remote SQL Server?I can get the connection to work fine from home but not through the firewall at work on the corporate network. We...
I usually block all but a very few countries using the geo-blocking feature on the MX-84. It has greatly cut down malicious traffic - (to the best of my knowledge).I will say at the outset that firewalls are not my greatest skill set. I have explaine...
On an MX-84 will a Layer 3 Firewall Rule trump a Layer 7 Rule?For example: I want a certain address and port configuration in a country that I block with a Layer 7 rule to work, so can I create a Layer 3 Firewall Rule to accomplish that?Or do I still...
My firewall has IDS alerts for a few addresses, it's marking them as "OS-MOBILE Android Stagefright MP4 buffer overflow attempt", and it is allowing them. All on port 80. Why is it allowing this traffic if it shows up as an IDS?The AP is a Meraki AP3...
In a small environment with an MX84 what would be the risks of using 1:1 NAT over DMZ. We only have two outside facing servers/IPs. And I'm going to do everything I can to one of them to move it to a cloud application. Do I really "need" the complica...
No rule blocking this traffic. It almost sounds like you want to access a SQL server (somewhere on the internet) from inside your network. If that is the case the default L3 rules I believe are allow all (unless you are denying outbound). If you do n...
@Philip D'Ath I thought you only had to do port forwarding if it was not the main interface IP address....Clients will be connecting through ODBC through the firewall (internet) to a URL of the SQL server.
Yes, public IP. I have blocking rules but nothing to do with this address and nothing to do with port 1433 (this is what the vendor told us to use - but I'm wondering if you need more for ODBC)
