Awesome that you made this video. Earlier this year I set my firewall rules on my Synology interfaces similar to what you specify for extra security on my network segments. Your guidance has been life-changing to many sir.

[KeithTingle]

I enjoy these firewall rules and VLAN videos, I find out how little I really know

[rullywow]

10.13.37.0 is certainly the leet network lol. Great vid as usual, thanks for making this!

[ronressler]

Perfect timing Tom, I was just days ago pondering the best way to setup my cameras and Synology and you provided a great solution. Thanks and Happy holidays, Ron

[mysticsilent]

Great additional security settings i've never thought about. Thanks for this eye opener 😁.

[keyboard_g]

Nice. Clear and well presented. Thanks, Tom.

[cLickphotographySEA]

That was the best explanation of how to firewall rules on the Synology! Thanks

[plrpilot]

Thanks for this, Tom. Happy New Year!

[mynightoff]

Excellent - just what I've been waiting for. Many thanks Tom.

[JeppoTheWrecker]

Thanks for doing the video as requested. Very useful.

I love this video, Tom. Thank you so much for doing this. I admit I had never considered using multiple interfaces on my Synology for anything other than aggregation (what a dope!) This is a brilliant use, and I hope to implement this soon! I also loved your pfsense video on this, even though I don't use a pfsense router. It gave me a ton of ideas for how to better secure my home network, which I'm always looking for! Thank you once again!

Great video Lawrence Sys. I use Qnap. I imagine it's similar, given the 2 interfaces. Digging in. Thanks for this!

Nice summary video. You mentioned the camera network use case, I would love to see an overview of Synology Surveillance Station and a video comparing to UniFi Protect. I'm contemplating the two but thinking since I already have a mid range Synology that Surveillance Station will probably be the better option due to camera costs from Ubiquiti but haven't decided yet and don't yet understand what is needed to get started with S.S. such as licensing. Thanks for the great content!

If you need to open ports to the internet, you can limit access from a specific country (your country) through the firewall.

[andylauriewalmsley]

Thanks Tom, Great video - when the trusted network also has access to the Synology on the less trusted network, does that potentially cause asymmetric routing?

[Ultrajamz]

So if traffic happens, and the top rule allows it, any rule below it that may deny it, doesn’t count. It goes by the first rule from the top that it ever matches with?

[marco.lop]

Hi Tom, thank you for the greate Video !

If you want to add another layer of security. You can moddify the "Admin Group" and allow the "DSM" application only from certian subnets.

be carefule to not lock you out ;-)

[christopheoudin]

Hi tanks for this very informative video. Can you do something like that for truenas? Happy new year!

[adrianteri]

On Synology's part it would be useful to just shortlist the ports/interfaces that are in use when your making the firewall rules.
