Step 5: Enable Logging for Traffic that Doesn’t Match Any Rules

Traffic that does not match any of the rules you defined will match the predefined interzone-default rule at the bottom of the rulebase and be denied. For visibility into the traffic that is not matching any of the rules you created, enable logging on the interzone-default rule:
  1. Select the interzone-default row in the rulebase and click
    Override
    to enable editing on this rule.
  2. Select the
    interzone-default
    rule name to open the rule for editing.
  3. On the
    Actions
    tab, select
    Log at Session End
    and click
    OK
    .
  4. Create a custom report to monitor traffic that hits this rule.
    1. Select
      Monitor
      Manage Custom Reports
      .
    2. Add
      a report and give it a descriptive
      Name
      .
    3. Set the
      Database
      to
      Traffic Summary
      .
    4. Select the
      Scheduled
      check box.
    5. Add the following to the Selected Columns list:
      Rule
      ,
      Application
      ,
      Bytes
      ,
      Sessions
      .
    6. Set the desired
      Time Frame
      ,
      Sort By
      and
      Group By
      fields.
    7. Define the query to match traffic hitting the interzone-default rule:
      (rule eq 'interzone-default')
  5. Commit
    the changes you made to the rulebase.
