Required
Fields
Required Field | Description |
---|---|
Name | A label that supports up to 31 characters,
used to identify the rule. |
Rule Type | Specifies whether the rule applies to traffic
within a zone, between zones, or both:
|
Source Zone | The zone from which the traffic originates. |
Destination Zone | The zone at which the traffic terminates.
If you use NAT, make sure to always reference the post-NAT zone. |
Application | The application which you wish to control.
The firewall uses App-ID, the traffic classification technology,
to identify traffic on your network. App-ID provides application
control and visibility in creating security policies that block
unknown applications, while enabling, inspecting, and shaping those
that are allowed. |
Action | Specifies an Allow or Block action
for the traffic based on the criteria you define in the rule. When you
configure the firewall to block traffic, it either resets the connection
or silently drops packets. To provide a better user experience,
you can configure granular options to block traffic instead of silently
dropping packets, which can cause some applications to break and
appear unresponsive to the user. For more details, see Security Policy Actions. |
