13-4 Creating Custom Rules
Figure 13-2 WAN to LAN Traffic
13.4 Logs
A log is a detailed record that you create for packets that either match a rule, don’t match a rule or both when
you are creating/editing a firewall rule (see
Figure 13-4) . You can also choose not to create a log for a rule in
this screen. An attack automatically generates a log. Logs can be sent to an e-mail account or syslog server
that you specify in the
Log Settings screen (see the chapter on logs).
13.5 Rule Summary
The fields in the Rule Summary screens are the same for Local Network and Internet ,
so the discussion below refers to both.
Click on Firewall , then Rule Summary to bring up the following screen. This screen is a summary of the
existing rules. Note the order in which the rules are listed.
The ordering of your rules is very important as rules are applied in turn.
