>Description:
for udp firewall rule is somewhat equivalent to (full rules available on request)
set skip on lo0
scrub in all
block in log all
pass out all
pass in proto { tcp, udp } from any to net0 port domain
pass in proto udp from any to net0 port { isakmp, 4500 }
When sniffing net0 with tcpdump the following packet will show up:
ks358229.kimsufi.com.mdns > 224.0.0.251.mdns
rbx-48-m2.routers.ovh.net.1985 > ALL-ROUTERS.MCAST.NET.1985
pastel-pink.feralhosting.com.6771 > 239.192.152.143.6771
ks358206.kimsufi.com.50914 > 239.255.255.250.1900
They all seems to be using multicast addresses
(Dont know if broadcast or tcp have the same issue)
