Learning a firewall-rule with specific destination:port [RESOLVED]

[Guest]

Hi,

I'm coming from Outpost, where the following was possible...

When I start an application which requires outgoing network access, the Firewall Alert box pops up. How do I respond/configure to just allow by learning this one specific network access? So for exactly this destination-IP:port?

• Allow this request allows for all IP's and all ports. I do not want that
• I do not want to Block this request
• Treat this application as does not help, since usually this specific destination-IP:port is not defined yet

Yes, I could edit the rule afterwards or create very detailed predefined applications, but that's a lot of work...

So a possibility in the FW Alert box like:

• Allow
• Source: any or <from request>
• Destination: <from request>
• Port: <from request>

would be great!

Any solution to this? Thanks a lot!

Only takes a second to edit a rule. Did you read all the sticky posts under important topics?

Try going to firewall/advanced/firewall behavior settings/alert settings and set the slider to "very high"

Also make sure the Firewall is in "Custom"

That was it!  And shame on me, I could have found that myself...
