6.3 Definition of Custom Traffic Rules
Figure 6.16 Traffic rule — setting a service
Use the Any button to replace all defined items with the Any item (this item is also used by default for all new rules). Whenever at least one new service is added, the Any value removed automatically.
Use the Remove button to remove all items defined (the Nothing value will be displayed in the item list). Whenever at least one service is added, the Nothing value will be removed automatically. If the Nothing value is kept in the Service column, the rule is disabled.
The Nothing value is important for removal of services (see chapter 12.3). The Nothing value is automatically used for the Service item of rules where a removed service has been used. Thus, all these rules are disabled. Inserting the Nothing value manually is not meaningful
Note: If a protocol inspector of the particular protocol is used in the service definition, the inspector is automatically applied to this service’s traffic. If desired to bypass the protocol inspector for certain traffic, it is necessary to define this exception in the par- ticular traffic rule. For detailed information, see chapter 23.4.
