[SOLVED] Firewall not working

[Animatrix]

Hi guys, weird issue here, i have enabled firewall on datacentre, host and vm , seems to block traffic just fine however if i then try and let some ports through the firewall they dont open up on the host, unless i set using the macro option ? for example on my vm i allowed tcp port 443 , https right .... no access , however if i delete that rule and select https from macros .. boom lets me in.. thats great only thing is i have custom ports i need to allow through , any ideas .. tries on host and also security groups same thing, single node not a cluster btw..

Thanks in advance
K

hi,

you can see the macro definitions here [0]

if you have custom ports to allow you just need to create a rule. for example to allow https:
