ProSafe Wireless-N 8-Port Gigabit VPN Firewall FVS318N

Table 33. Outbound rules overview (continued)

Setting

Description

Outbound Rules

 

 

 

WAN Users

The settings that determine which Internet locations are covered

LAN WAN rules

 

by the rule, based on their IP address. The options are:

DMZ WAN rules

 

Any. All Internet IP addresses are covered by this rule.

 

 

Single address. Enter the required address in the Start field.

 

 

Address range. Enter the required addresses the Start and

 

 

Finish fields.

 

 

 

 

DMZ Users

The settings that determine which DMZ computers on the DMZ

DMZ WAN rules

 

network are affected by this rule. The options are:

LAN DMZ rules

 

Any. All computers and devices on your DMZ network.

 

 

Single address. Enter the required address in the Start field to

 

 

apply the rule to a single computer on the DMZ network.

 

 

Address range. Enter the required addresses in the Start and

 

 

Finish fields to apply the rule to a range of DMZ computers.

 

QoS Priority

The priority assigned to IP packets of this service. The priorities

LAN WAN rules

 

are defined by Type of Service in the Internet Protocol Suite

DMZ WAN rules

 

standards, RFC 1349. The QoS profile determines the priority of

 

 

a service, which, in turn, determines the quality of that service for

 

 

the traffic passing through the firewall.

 

 

The wireless VPN firewall marks the Type of Service (ToS) field

 

 

as defined in the QoS profiles that you create. For more

 

 

information, see Preconfigured Quality of Service Profiles on

 

 

page 177.

 

 

Note: The wireless VPN firewall has preconfigured default QoS

 

 

profiles; you cannot configure the QoS profiles. A QoS profile can

 

 

become active only when you apply it to a nonblocking inbound

 

 

or outbound firewall rule.

 

 

 

 

Bandwidth Profile

Bandwidth limiting determines how the data is sent to and from

IPv4 LAN WAN rules

 

your host. The purpose of bandwidth limiting is to provide a

 

 

solution for limiting the outgoing and incoming traffic, thus

 

 

preventing the LAN users from consuming all the bandwidth of

 

 

the Internet link. For more information, see Create Bandwidth

 

 

Profiles on page 175. For outbound traffic, you can configure

 

 

bandwidth limiting only on the WAN interface for a LAN WAN rule.

 

 

Note: Bandwidth limiting does not apply to the DMZ interface.
