Outbound Access Restriction
Scenario
For security reasons, it may be appropriate to disallow LAN users to use ftp to transfer files to and from the
Internet, or otherwise restrict outbound access. This can easily be achieved by setting up an outbound firewall
rule with the BD1000.
Solution
To set up a firewall rule between the Internet and the private network for outbound access, click the
Add Rule
button in the
Outbound Firewall Rules
table. Use the following settings for the new rule:
•
Protocol:
TCP <- HTTP
•
Source IP & Port:
Any Address, Any Port
•
Destination IP & Port:
Any Address, Single Port, Port 21
•
Action:
Deny
After the fields have been entered, click
Save
to add the rule.
