New Custom Rule Settings

Service Name

This setting specifies the name of the outbound traffic rule.

Enable

This setting specifies whether the outbound traffic rule takes effect.When Enable is

checked, the rule takes effect: traffic is matched and actions are takenby the Peplink

Balance based on the other parameters of the rule.When Enable is unchecked, the rule

does not take effect: the PeplinkBalance disregards the other parameters of the rule.

Source

This setting specifies the

source IP address, IP network, or MAC address for traffic

that

matches the rule.

Destination

This setting specifies the destination IP address, IP network, or domain name for traffic that

matches the rule.

If Domain Name is chosen and a domain name, such as foobar.com, is entered, any

outgoing accesses to foobar.com and *.foobar.com will match this criterion. You may enter

a wildcard (.*) at the end of a domain name to match any host with a name having the

domain name in the middle. If you enter foobar.*, for example, www.foobar.com,

www.foobar.co.jp, or foobar.co.uk will also match. Placing wildcards in any other position is

not supported.

NOTE: if a server has one Internet IP address and multiple server names, and if one of the

names is defined here, accesses to any one of the server names will also match this rule.

Protocol

and Port

This setting specifies the IP protocol and port of traffic that matches this rule. You may

select common protocols from the Protocol Selection Tool drop-down menu.
