You determine the level of interaction that you want users to have with the client
by permitting or blocking their ability to configure firewall rules. Users can interact
with the client only when it notifies them of new network connections and possible
problems. Or they can have full access to the user interface.
You can enable or disable the firewall protection as needed.
Table 15-2 describes how you can increase firewall protection by adjusting the
security level and modifying the firewall rules.
Table 15-2
Firewall protection adjustments
Description Setting
Changing from default to custom lets you modify the firewall rules
and lets you modify the security level and follows:
■
Low
The Low security level allows all IP incoming traffic and
outgoing traffic. Low is the default security level.
■
Medium
The Medium security level enforces the Low security level. It
also blocks TCP incoming traffic and UDP stateful incoming
traffic.
■
High
The High security level blocks all IP incoming traffic and
outgoing traffic.
Default or custom
You can modify the default firewall rules or you can create new
rules.
You create and edit Firewall policies similarly to the way you
create and modify other types of policies. You can assign,
withdraw, replace, copy, export, import, or delete a Firewall policy.
You typically assign a policy to multiple groups in your security
network.
