Order of Precedence for Rules

Figure 3-9

For any traffic attempting to pass through the firewall, the packet information is subjected to the rules in the order shown in the Rules table, beginning at the top and proceeding to the default rules at the bottom. In some cases, the order of precedence of two or more rules might be important in determining the disposition of a packet. The Move button allows you to relocate a defined rule to a new position in the table.
