3.2.1 Adapter rules
Each hardware entity which is simulated by software or each hardware entity (e.g. a
network interface card) is seen as an adapter (e.g. Miniport, Bridge Connection, etc.)
The Avira Firewall shows the adapter rules for all adapters which exist on your
computer and for which a driver is installed.
A predefined adapter rule is dependent on the security level. You can change the se-
curity level via the Avira Control Center like it is described in chapter 3.1 or change
the adapter rules as you want. After you have changed the adapter rules the control-
ler of the firewall is placed on the security level “Custom”.
3.2.1.1
Incoming Rules
Incoming rules help to control the incoming data traffic with the Avira Firewall.
Example:
You want to add the IP address 10.40.30.20.
If you click on “Add rule”, a window opens with different predefined rules. There you
choose “IP” and confirm with “OK”.
In your “Incoming rules” you can find the point “Incoming IP rule”. Choose this point.
You can also rename it. You can now enter the IP and its mask into the marked box
below and enable or block it. You can also decide if the package should be written
into the log file or not.
