Question Firewall disabled if I click "Disable Firewall Rules Management"?

[SebastianK1]

I have blocked access from an IP and saved and applied the rule. The accesses can no longer get through (saw in the logfile).

If I click the "Disable Firewall Rules Management" button, the accesses come through again. Will the firewall be switched off when I want to end the rule management?

Best,
Sebastian

Hello SebastianK1,
effectively when you disable the firewall, you are allowing all the traffic back to the server.
