Default Rule Play When?
Lets say I wanted to allow msn. Would my packet filter rule be to allow From WAN_Interface to Internal_Network or Any to WAN_Interface ?

Im a little confused on when the rule comes into play.

Thanks

Packet filter rules come into play after masq and dnats.
If you want to allow MSN to connect out from your internal network do something like this:
<font class="small">Code:</font><hr /><pre>Internal_Network__ MSN Connect Any Allow </pre><hr />

Where "MSN Connect" = A service def.
