Filter Policies

A Filter Policy is a one-way filter applied to initialized network traffic flowing from one zone to another. A Filter Policy

needs to be assigned to a Forwarding for it to take effect. Filter Policies can either be Added, Edited, Removed, or

Cloned. Cloning a Policy will copy the entire policy. The name of the cloned policy will include the name plus “Clone.”

Default Allow All is a preconfigured policy to allow all traffic initialized from one zone to flow to another zone. The

state of the connection is tracked to allow responses to traverse the zones back to the source. LAN to WAN

forwardings use this policy by default. The policy can be removed or altered to filter the traffic flow.

Default Deny All is a preconfigured policy to deny all traffic initialized from one zone to be blocked to another zone.

WAN to LAN forwardings use this policy by default. The policy can be removed or altered to filter the traffic flow.

Click Add to create a new filter policy, or select an existing policy and click Edit to open the filter policy editor.
