In addition, a single port, or a range of ports, can be specified for the Source IP & Port
setting.
Action
This setting specifies the action to be taken by the Pepwave MAX upon encountering
traffic that matches the both of the following:
Source IP & Port
Destination IP & Port
With the value of
Allow
for the Action setting, the matching traffic passes through
the Pepwave MAX (to be routed to the destination).
If the value of the Action setting is set to
Deny
, the matching traffic does not pass
through the Pepwave MAX (and is discarded).
Event Logging
This setting specifies whether or not to log matched firewall events.
The logged messages are shown on the page
Status >Event Log
.
A sample message is as follows:
Aug 13 23:47:44 Denied CONN=Ethernet WAN SRC=20.3.2.1
DST=192.168.1.20 LEN=48 PROTO=TCP SPT=2260 DPT=80

Tip
If the default inbound rule is set as
Allow
for NAT enabled WANs, no inbound Allow firewall rules will be required
for inbound Port Forwarding and inbound NAT Mapping rules. However, if the default inbound rule is set as
Deny
,
a corresponding Allow firewall rules will be required.
