| Summary | 0021091: Change to default incoming rule for 169.254.0.0/16 to block new packets only | ||||||||
| Description | From forum post https://www.clearos.com/clearfoundation/social/community/outgoing-connection-to-one-specific-address-does-not-work-even-if-all-outgoing-connections-are-allowed#reply-228511 [^] it looks like various cloud providers are now using 169.254 addresses for instance metadata. See: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ec2-instance-metadata.html [^] and https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/windows/instance-metadata-service. [^] Can I suggest the default Incoming rule for 169.254.0.0/16 is changed just to block NEW packets by adding "-m state --state NEW" to the rule. | ||||||||

Big dawning here. The firewall will block new packets anyway. Just remove the rule. |
