I just received an EdgeRouter POE-5 and started configuring it for my home network. I have updated it to the latest firmware and used the WAN+2LAN2 template for initial configuration. I am unfamiliar and a bit confused with the EdgeOS firewall rules. So before I replace my existing router (which is a Dual Core Pendium-D Server running zental - its totally overkill but it easily handles 1Gb/s WAN routing), I want to make sure that I have a firm grasp on the firewall rules.For managing GNU/Linux based firwalls, I normally use Firewall Builder (I know the project is no longer being developed BUT it still works) to create the rules for iptables. Does anyone have any advise on how to convert iptables to EdgeOS firewall rules? Are there any nice GUI's anyone can recommend that will work with EdgeOS/EdgeRouter similar to Firewall Builder?Also, I would like to use the auto-firewall feature when adding port forwarding, will this be an issue if I configure the firewall rules using an external program (if any exists)?The table below is an example configuration based off of the dd-wrt firewall builder template.Thank you for your help!
