In this regard, why would you block all incoming connections to your computer?īlock all incoming connections will prevent legitimate network connection, attempts including all forms of file sharing in OSX, remote access connections with SSH or SFTP & any other similar network service that allows for Mac network connections from trusted logins. The firewall manages this by tracking the state of connections (such a firewall is often called a Stateful Firewall). So if outbound new connections are allowed, then the incoming half of that exchange is okay. Both active and inactive network interfaces are listed, in the order that they are used by the OS and with a lot of details (MAC-address, interface name, router, subnet mask etc.).“ Incoming block” means that incoming new connections are blocked, but established traffic is allowed.
