>Description:
Ive started or noticed this problem happening just last year
after I started getting into messing around with ipf. Ive noticed that
when booting up a laptop with a pccard that the ipf.rules arent being
loaded due to them trying to be loaded to early before the interface
comes up which leaves the system open.
>How-To-Repeat:
plug pccard into a laptop and boot with just ipf built into the
kernel and the default rule of "block out on ed1 all". ipf is set to
default accept in the kernel. And it should boot up without the rules
loaded and leave you to have to manually load the rules yourself.
This has been happening since 4.9-RELEASE that I have noticed personaly.
Happens on 5.2.1-RELEASE - 5.3-RELEASE as well.
>Fix:
Not sure what a fix would or could be to solve this problem
but would be nice if there was some way to check if the interface is
up and configured before ipf tries to load the rules.
