Figure 89 - Application Group
o Firewall Policy — [Personal Firewall|Firewall Policy], [Firewall Policy
Definitions], [rw]
List of personal firewall policies. A personal firewall policy consists of a set of
packet filter rules and a set of application filter rules. A packet filter rule
decides on the treatment of individual packets that traverse the personal
firewall on the OmniAccess 3500 NLG card. An application filter rule decides on
the opening of laptop-terminated connections for the target application
whenever the application requests such opening. Each user group is bound to a
single personal firewall policy. Whenever the policy changes, the same
modification applies to the personal firewalls of all users in the group. Each
entry in the table shows the following information items for identification
purposes: <Policy Name> (unique alphanumeric identifier of the firewall
policy), <User Control> (indicates whether to allow user control over the
firewall policy).
Clicking the <New> tab brings up several tabs which allow the creation of a
new personal firewall policy with the configuration of the following objects:
− General — [Personal Firewall|Firewall Policy|New|General], [Firewall
Policy Settings (Add)], [rw]
 Policy Name — Unique alphanumeric identifier for the personal firewall
policy.
 User Control — Whether the user will have control to allow or deny
applications. Possible values are Allow and Deny.
