very simple question

I am new to looknstop and using/trying the (latest) trial version...
and i want to set 192.168.0.25 as a trusted host.
So the fw will allow all ethernet-trafic from and to this host (tcp/udp/icmp etc.)

Of course i am still using the StandardRuleSet (fresh from the box).

I must have overlooked something, because a part of the traffic is blocked,
by the last rule "TCP any other packets" (also according the log)

I've used this in the rule:

EthernetType : All
Direction: In/OUT
IP: All,All,All,All,0,All,0
Ethernet Address: ALL blank , All blank (perhaps i have to set the MAC here)
Source Ip Address eq 192.168.0.25 (tcp/udp = ALL)

Dest Ip Address: All All

Did i overlook something?

 

Hi tuatara,

Exactly, set there your MAC address as the sender, and the other trusted computer MAC address as the receiver.

You can find your MAC addresse by typing :

ipconfig /all

in command line. You can type too :

arp -a

to know the remote computer MAC address.
Then put the rule in the top of your rules list, and all traffic between these two computers should be allowed.

Perfect !, problem solved !

Thank you very much!!
