  • IP Blocked event

    From Jeff Squires@1:120/457 to All on Thu Jan 28 16:46:54 2021
    Is it possible for the IP Blocked event (Windows) could create a rule that would block ALL incoming ports? I was using the IP Blocked event as I was getting a ton of port probing and then all off a sudden I was unable to
    access my BBS remotely. I thought my IP provider was blocking the ports but
    it turned out there was a rule created in my WIN10 fire wall rules blocking
    ALL incoming ports/traffic. I deleted the rule and all was good for a day
    then the it happened again. I disabled the IP Blocked event and everything
    has been ok since.

    The IP Blocked is an event type that executes a command line whenever an IP is blocked. What it executes is entirely up to you. There is a default event set up for various operating systems that is disabled by default. I am assuming you've enabled this one? If so you can go into the event editor and see exactly the command line that gets executed.
