Configuring Firewall Settings
88 WatchGuard Firebox X Edge
To use the SOCKS-compatible application:
1 Clear the Disable SOCKS proxy checkbox.
The SOCKS proxy is enabled.
2 Click Submit.
Logging all allowed outbound traffic
If you use the standard property settings, the Firebox X Edge records
only unusual events. When traffic is denied, the Edge records the
information in the log file. You can configure the Edge to record
information about all the outgoing traffic in the log file.
NOTE
Recording all outgoing traffic creates a large number of log
records. WatchGuard recommends that you record all the
outgoing traffic only as a problem-solving aid.
To record all outgoing traffic:
1 Select the Log All Allowed Outbound Access checkbox.
2 Click Submit.
Stop using the current MAC address
Your ISP can register the MAC address of your computer and accept
attempts to connect only from that MAC address. You can change
this property to use the MAC address that connected to the ISP on
this line in the past. The MAC address must obey these conditions:
• The MAC address must use 12 hexadecimal characters
(hhhhhhhhhhhh) with a value between 0 and 9 or between “a”
and “f”.
• The MAC address must operate with:
- One or more addresses on the external network
- The MAC address of the trusted network for the Firebox X Edge
- The MAC address of the optional network for the The Firebox X
Edge
• The MAC address cannot be set to 000000000000
• The MAC address cannot be set to ffffffffffff (0012340ABCDE)
