Firewalls only inspect traffic that arrives at the interface. If the routing table doesn't have a path to send the packet, the packet is dropped locally before reaching the firewall.

No, restriction limits scope but doesn't remove the compromised credentials. A reset is necessary to eliminate the threat vector.

Latency measures delay, not volume. IOPS is a count of operations derived from throughput divided by block size.

IOPS counts operations/sec, while throughput measures bytes/sec. They are linked by the average block size.
