firewall call filter help

Post by snoopy »

Hi,

could you describe how are the filters in firewall settings evaluated? If you have more filters, they are evaluated from top to bottom, or how? the filter which ALLOWs some numbers or groups means, that all the rest will be INTERCEPTED?
Some small intro would be appreciated.

for example:
i would like to have something like this:
CLOSE FRIENDS - group of really close friends
FAMILY - group of family members
VIP - group of VIP customers
CUSTOMERS - group of standard customers
BLOCKED - spam calls
of course I have another groups, which means that there are the numbers which are not in any of the groups above

BLOCKED and Anonymous calls should be intercepted all time (easy filter)
Then I want to allow only some of the groups above. So I thought I will make one filter to intercept ALL calls, and the ALLOW filters for each of the group above. So it will be ease to enable only the groups I want. But it doesn't work :-/

Hi
Yes, "Allows" high priority.
Your settings are correct. But pay attention to a group of different accounts of the same name. You need to select all groups of the same name. Perhaps you omitted group contains the required contacts. I just do the test that it works. You can do the test with other phone to call your cell phone.
If it does not work please provide more detailed information.I can do the test on my phone. Thank you!

Sorry for the delay.
You should see a + sign in the title bar.
Or you can press the Menu button.
