Firewall rule re-order behaviour when using "Filter Active Rules List" to edit rules.
Hello This is my 1st post on the forum and I'm am a relative newbie to the F5 BIG-IP platform so I apologise upfront if the following question is a bit basic and has been covered somewhere else in the forum. I currently have a BIG-IP running 17.1 with a number of partitions configured on it. Each partition has it's own Network Firewall policies applied to it. I usually edit the network firewall rules by going into the policy, scrolling down the rule base, finding the rule of interest and then clicking on it's name to edit it and then applying the change. I've also noticed that I can use the "Filter Active Rules List" section, find the rule and then edit it there but when I go to apply the updated rule, the system appears to then re-order the rule base and put those edited rules at the top of the policy. I'm assuming this is expected behaviour but I'm trying to find out why the platform does this and if there is anyway of disabling this behaviour. As mentioned above I'm guessing this question has been answered somewhere else on this forum but any help on this behaviour is most appreciated. Thank you and hope you all have a great day.
VPN BIG-IP Edge client : firewall rules applied by BIG-IP Edge Client
We have established a VPN connection between a Windows client and a BIG-IP v15. We are using BIG_IP Edge client, with network access. According to table 3.5 in this document : https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K49720803#link_05_04 when "always connected" mode is enabled, BIG-IP edge client applies firewall rules. Is there any other feature that allow BIG-IP edge client to apply firewall rules ? What kind of rules are applied ?
