Hello all, simple enough question I hope
I wish to only allow access to the built-in m0n0wall VPN server from a
specific external IP.It seems that by default, once the PPTP server is enabled in m0n0wall, an automatic rule is created to allow VPN access from
ANY external IP, as seen in the following lines under
http://your_m0n0wall_box/status.php# PPTP rules
pass in quick proto gre from any to external_ip_here keep state group 200
pass in quick proto tcp from any to external_ip_here = 1723 keep state group 200
Is it as simple as just creating a new firewall rule to only allow access to port 1723 for a specific Source of your choosing? Will that bypass/supersede the above automatic m0n0wall rules?
If the above is in fact the case, is it better when creating that specific rule to select GRE as the protocol - or just TCP traffic on 1723, perhaps both?
BTW - Sorry if this has been asked before, tried to search for this answer but really couldn't find it.
Thanks a ton for your time kind sirs.
