If the profile contains more than 10 rules, use <<, <, > and >> arrows to
browse rules.
Add And Edit Rules
You can add a new firewall rule, for example, to allow access to a new
service in the network.
To add a new rule, click Add new rule below the list of rules.
When you edit the firewall rules, you should allow only the needed
services and deny all the rest to minimize the security risk.
Changing the order of the rules may affect all the other rules you
have created.
Type Choose whether the rule allows or denies the
service.
Remote host Enter details about target addresses. Enter the
IP address and the subnet in bit net mask
format. For example: 192.168.88.0/29.
You can use the following aliases as the target
address:
[myNetwork] - The local-area network.
[myDNS] - All configured DNS servers.
Description Enter a short description for the rule.

Service Select services for which you want the rule to

you have saved the service list in the Network
Services page. For more information, see
