There is an order hierarchy in which firewall rules are processed in OPNsense. In this video, I discuss the order of the firewall rules so that you may be familiar with how rules are processed in OPNsense especially if you are new to creating firewall rules.
OPNsense has made it easier to understand the firewall rule hierarchy by displaying the types of rules which are processed before your interface rules. I find this very convenient since it is easy to see which rules will be executed first.
In a future video, I plan to discuss creating firewall rules in more detail, but I think it is important to understand the order in which rules are processed to help guide you later when you are writing rules for each interface.
