Blocking inbound traffic to Port Forwarded Service
Orbi Pro SRR60 (for some reason I can add that in as the model in the discussion) So I'm running a service on a VM and I have a Port Forwarding rule setup to direct inbound traffic to that servic...
On the original Orbi (not any of the 'Pro' devices), the Orbi log has an option to log every instance of port forwarding/port triggering.
Once a port is forwarded to a device on the LAN, that device is what accepts or denies connections. There could be a restriction in the firewall rules which blocks some IPs and accepts others?
Are these failures intermittent? i.e. the same remote user gets access some times, but does not get access other times? If a remote user fails to get access every time, there could be an issue with the firewall rules on their end.
