I have a public subnet of 6x.5x.7x.129/28, and have placed a server on OPT1 which is bridged to the WAN with a public address of 6x.5x.7x.134. 

From My LAN subnet "192.168.x.x" I can sometimes SSH in to the server and sometimes its blocked and I get a line in the firewall log of:

 211:53:45.835316   OPT1 Bridged to WAN 6x.5x.7x.134, port 22 6x.5x.7x.130, port 7768 TCP
The address of "6x.5x.7x.130" is the WAN address.

I have not changed any rules.
I have found that of a switch the setting for "Block private networks" under the WAN setup page I regain SSH access to the server.

Why is this a sometimes thing?  And how should I be setting this up?

Never minded.  I was sure I was on 1.33, and find that I'm on 1.32.
Changelog
"inbound NAT rules can now be added on the LAN interface with the WAN address as a target; this helps with accessing servers on an optional interface from the LAN interface by using m0n0wall's WAN IP address."

Thank You.
