What are you talking about? do you mean that the other device only recognizes that the traffic is not allowed after 60 to 80 seconds? that is due to timeouts and how connection blocking is communicated.

When we start the portmaster service in windows it is taking around 60 to 80 seconds of time period for the income traffic rules to applied but outgoing traffic rules applied immediately when we on the portmaster  ---- On Mon, 25 Nov 2024 15:48:34 +0530 Raphael ***@***.***> wrote ---- What are you talking about? do you mean that the other device only recognizes that the traffic is not allowed after 60 to 80 seconds? that is due to timeouts and how connection blocking is communicated. —Reply to this email directly, view it on GitHub, or unsubscribe.You are receiving this because you authored the thread.Message ID: ***@***.***>

Can you provide example how you are testing this and on which OS.
The way that Portmaster works it does not have a difference between blocking incoming and outgoing connection, so they should be blocked at the same time.
