What do you want to do?
Add a Standard Rule Entry
A standard rule entry allows you to permit or deny traffic that came from a
specified source. The source can be a network or a host within a specific network.
You can create a single rule entry in this window, but you can return to this
window to create additional entries for a rule if you need to.
If you want to: Do this:
Cancel the operation and preserve the
association between the interface and the
existing rule.
Click No. The association between the existing rule and
the interface is preserved, and the rule that you created in
the Add a Rule window is saved.
You can examine the existing rule and the new rule and
decide whether you want to replace the existing rule or to
merge the entries of the new rule with the existing rule.
Continue, and merge the entries of the rule
you created with the entries of the existing
rule.
Click Yes. Then, when the window appears that asks
whether you want to merge or replace the existing rule,
click Merge.
The entries you created for the new rule are appended
after the last entry of the existing rule.
Note If the rule you want to merge is not compatible
with the existing rule, you will be allowed only
to replace the existing rule.
Continue, and replace the rule existing rule
with the rule you created.
Click Yes. Then, when the window appears tha t asks you
if you want to merge or replace the existing rule, click
Replace.
The rule you are replacing is not erased. It is just
disassociated with the interface and direction.
