    I’m curious to know in which case is useful to know the public IP in a firewall rule because I’ve never used it.

      An access rule for instance. To say to allow all traffic or specific types of traffic from a public IP address. This could be if you wanted to allow access to some media server from your friends house or something.

        To allow access from a friend you need his public IP, not yours.
