QuFirewall help needed

I have QNAP TS-453E with latest firmware. All apps which are installed to QNAP came from QNAP Store. I have:

  • CAYIN
  • ClamAV
  • Container Station
  • Download Station
  • File Station
  • HBS3
  • IFTTT
  • Malware Remover
  • Media Streaming
  • Multimedia Console
  • Music Station
  • myQNAPcloud
  • myQNAPcloud Link
  • Network & Virtual Switch
  • Notification Center
  • Photo Station
  • Plex Media
  • Qboost
  • Qfilling
  • QNAP AI
  • Qsirch
  • Qsync
  • QTS SSL
  • QuFirewall
  • QuLog
  • QuMagie
  • Resource Monitor
  • Security Center
  • SMB Service
  • SSD Profiling
  • Video Station

There are no active downloads in Download Station. Also I have PiHole in containers station works under other IP address on that QNAP as a DNS server.

On router I noticed a lot of requests to some countries from QNAP which are prohibited in my network (russia). I can’t understand what exactly on QNAP generates these requests. QuFirewall doesn’t provide information, just amount of blocked events without any explanation what it was.
I configured Automatic Capture as enabled in QuFirewall, however I did not notice any issues here.

  1. Is it possible to somehow make reports more valuable? I want to see service / port / IP information.
  2. Is it possible to block country on QuFirewall itself?
  3. Which app can generate requests to russia from what I mentioned above?

Disable download station and check again (Could be torrent network traffic)

This is exactly the case. I checked port and it also shows BitTorrent. So even, when I don’t have any active downloads or, even, any torrent files - Download Station continue sending some data to different peers. I have no idea why.

Is it possible to block specific country on QuFirewall itself?

It’s DHT traffic.

Just remove download station and put your torrent downloading on a different device (or in a container)
