Filters
Filters are used to allow or block (permit or deny) the flow of
packets through the VPN device. The source device initiating the
session can be either on the red (trusted) or the black
(untrusted) subnet. Think of a filter as a hole through the firewall
through which specified devices can communicate. Packets
passing through a filter are not modified in any way and no state
information is maintained.
