Dropped traffic identification

Fri Mar 05, 2010 12:40 pm

Hello,

I have nearly 200 rules in my firewall and I see traffic being dropped in my final drop rule. I would like to know which kind of traffic is being dropped there in an easy way. How do you identify your dropped packets? Suggestions accepted :)

Thanks in advance!

Add action=log log-prefix=DROPPED_TRAFFIC, just before the action=drop rule.

Glups... I should have thought about that! :?

It will show a lot of information, but I believe that I may be able to enable the rule for a while, analyze some traffic and disable it afterwards. Doing it some times and should get a view of what's being blocked and why :)

Thanks!
