l7 Filter rules to catch bittorrent

[Slartibart]

Hi,
i’m new with zeroshell so please bear with me,
I’m trying to set up some l7 filtering router. What do i have to do to catch bittorrent ? The below filter rules do not stop it from working. The ssh rule works fine. Im running 1.0.beta14, booted with apic disabled on a securepoint piranja.

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT 43777 packets, 31M bytes)

pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination

2   172 DROP       udp  --  *      *       192.168.1.0/24       0.0.0.0/0           LAYER7 l7proto bittorrent

4   312 DROP       tcp  --  *      *       192.168.1.0/24       0.0.0.0/0           LAYER7 l7proto bittorrent

0     0 DROP       all  --  *      ppp0  192.168.1.0/24       'publictestip'      LAYER7 l7proto ssh

Thanks

hi,

I got into ZS because I found the router had limited P2P blocking and yes ZS does cover extra P2P protocols.

BUT as far as I understand it, you are not going to block encrypted P2P traffic.
