Hi, I have a firewall rule WAN --> LAN with service: FTP. I only want to have that port open during business time (say 9:00 -17:00). So I made a schedule with this time frame and added i to the firewall rule. But after the time schedule the port is still open. What is going wrong?

    Hi @Fender  

    I setup time schedule 14:00~14:15 to allow specific service from WAN to LAN.

    And it looks traffic will block after time frame.



    According to your FTP service port still alive, you may have a check if USG local FTP server is enabled or not.

    Tested here with a USG40 V4.60 by from WAN to DMZ bridge and works fine.

    top rule allow from WAN to DMZ FTP and schedule then a rule under that to deny from WAN to DMZ FTP.

    Maybe you have another rule allowing FTP?

    Hi Stanley, your last screenshot, the USG local FTP server was checked. So when I tried a FTP check with http://scanner.openportstats.com/ the port seemed to be open. I unchecked it now, thank you!
