Shutting down / restarting the firewall
Ifyou need to shut your computer down or reboot it, theseoptions provide secure closure
of the Kerio WinRoute Firewall Engine and shutdown of the firewall’s operating system.
Restoring default configuration
This option restores the default firewall settings as installed from the installation CD
or upon the first startup of the VMware virtual host. All configuration files and data
(logs, statistics, etc.) will be removed and it will then be necessary to execute the initial
configuration of the firewall again as if a new installation (see chapter 2.7).
Restoring the default configuration can be helpful if the firewall’s configuration is acci-
dentally damaged that much that it cannot be corrected by any other means.
