I've found through experience that limiting outgoing connections will sometimes cause issues. I suspect it is because the applications are more flexible on ports than the rules allow for. And the drop invalid runs into issues with timeout in the firewall. If a connection is up but inactive for over 60 seconds, the firewall drops it, leading subsequent communication to be dropped. > > - unnecessary things in it [if it contains any, like are there > solutions for write multiple destination ip's in one line?] > - missing thing, that could be in a firewall, to make it > _SAFER/BETTER_!
