Denying incoming connections
Create policies that deny incoming connections to control access to the incoming policies that you have

You can use incoming policies to deny connections:
•
From addresses on the Internet (see
•
To addresses on your internal network (see
)
•
To services (see
•
According to a one-time or recurring schedule (see
)
For example, you may want to periodically deny access to your public web server to allow for regular
maintenance. To do this, create a recurring schedule for the maintenance period. Then create a policy
that matches the original web server policy. Set the schedule of this policy to the maintenance schedule
and set Action to Deny.
Since policy matching works on a first-match principle, you must add the deny policy above the accept
policy in the policy list.
