5.7.8 Configuring validators
A validator allows/blocks traffic based on the source/destination IP address and netmask.
Traffic will be allowed or blocked depending on the validator configuration specified when
the policy was created.
To configure a validator:
From the Current Firewall Policies table, click on the Host Validators link for the policy that
you want to configure. The Configure Validators page is displayed. Click on the Add Host
Validator link. The Firewall Add Host Validator page is displayed:
1 In the Host IP Address text box, type the IP address that you want to
allow/block.
2 In the Host Subnet Mask text box, type the IP mask address. If you want to
filter a range of addresses, you can specify the mask, for example,
255.255.255.0. If you want to filter a single IP address, use the specific IP
mask address, for example, 255.255.255.255.
3 Click on the Direction drop-down list and select the direction of traffic that you
want the validator to filter.
4 Click on Apply. The Configure Validators page is displayed, containing details of
the host validator that you have just added.
5 Each portfilter displayed in the Configure Validators page has a Delete Host
Validator hyperlink assigned to it. To delete a validator, click on this link, then
at the confirmation page, click on the Delete Host Validator button. The
validator is removed from the Firewall configuration.
