Allow, Block, or Reject Traffic Categories,
Specific Games, or Port Ranges With Traffic
Rules
You can set up traffic rules to allow, block, or reject all traffic, particular categories of
traffic, specific games, or port ranges. You can apply a traffic rule to one or more specific
devices or to all devices on your network, and you can set up a schedule for each traffic
rule. You can also apply a traffic rule to all devices and then set up an exception for a
device.
For each traffic rule, you can set up
one
of the following filtering actions:
•
Block. This action blocks traffic that conforms to the rule but allows all other traffic.
When traffic is blocked, it is dropped
without
notification to the traffic source.
•
Allow. This action allows traffic that conforms to the rule but blocks all other traffic.
•
Reject. This action rejects traffic that conforms to the rule but allows all other traffic.
When traffic is rejected, it is dropped
with
a notification to the traffic source. This
action is available only for a rule that applies to all traffic or to a port range. It is not
available for a rule that applies to particular categories of traffic or to specific games.
As you add rules, they are added to the table of rules, with the rule at the top of the
table as the most important rule that takes priority over all other rules. The second rule
in the table takes priority over all other rules that follow in the table, and so on. The rule
at the bottom of the table is the least important rule that is applied only after all other
rules were applied. However, you can reorder the rules in the table.
