2860 - Block all ports except 1 for a single IP was created by monkeymonkey76
Hi,
I have a machine which I would like to block all outgoing connections except UDP 1194. The reason for this is that the machine will be using an OpenVPN connection, and if the connections drops I don't want it to be able to connect to the internet, so my plan is to essentially use the firewall as a kill switch.
I have set rules in the Default Data filter however I have been unsuccessful, my setting either block everything or nothing. Any guidance or advice?

I've done it. I found it easier to make the default rule to be block and then add rules for what I want to let through.
