Configuration | Policy Management | Traffic Management
This section of the Manager lets you configure network lists, rules, filters, Security Associations, and
network address translation, which let you control the data traffic through the VPN Concentrator.
Network lists let you treat lists of network addresses as a single object, thus simplifying the
configuration of rules for complex networks. Filters consist of rules; and IPSec rules (rules in which you
configure an Apply IPSec action) also have Security Associations. Therefore you first co nfigure any
network lists, then rules and SAs, and finally filters.
A filter applies its rules to data packets coming through the system, in the order the rules are arranged
on the filter. If a packet matches all the parameters specified in the rule, the system takes the action
specified in the rule. If at least one rule parameter does not match, it applies the next rule; and so on. If
no rule matches, the system takes the default action specified in the filter.
You apply filters to interfaces under Configuration | Interfaces, and these are the most important filters for
security since they apply to all traffic. You also apply filters to groups and users under Configuration | User
Management; these filters apply to tunneled traffic only.
