Issue sending traffic to the localhost from console

General questions
1

Hello,

I’m trying to set the system’s name server to 127.0.0.1, but I’ve realized I can’t ping 127.0.0.1, 192.168.0.1, or any other IPs associated with VyOS. I can ping VyOS externally from my LAN in the appropriate allowed zones/VLANs, and I can ping other systems on my LAN from VyOS as expected.

I’m using a zone-based firewall, but I can’t seem to identify what’s blocking the pings.

LOCAL-VLAN1 (with VLAN1 being 192.168.0.1) is set to default accept, and the reverse zone of VLAN1-LOCAL is the same. There are no rules denying ICMP.

I’ve also set the firewall global options to all-ping ‘enable’.

Is there something obvious I’m overlooking?

Can you post your config?

How about creating a local-zone, and then allowing traffic from this local-zone to this local-zone? This might enable ping to 127.0.0.1

Sounds amazing. I will try it.
