Table 27. Outbound rules overview (continued)

Setting

Description

Outbound Rules

 

 

 

QoS Profile

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

LAN WAN rules

 

defined by Type of Service (ToS) in the Internet Protocol Suite

DMZ WAN rule

 

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 UTM marks the Type of Service (ToS) field as defined in the QoS

 

 

profiles that you create. For more information, see Create Quality of

 

 

Service Profiles on page 169.

 

 

Note: There is no default QoS profile on the UTM. After you have

 

 

created a QoS profile, it can become active only when you apply it to

 

 

a nonblocking inbound or outbound firewall rule.

 

 

Note: This field is not applicable to LAN DMZ rules.

 

 

 

 

Log

The settings that determine whether packets covered by this rule are

All rules

 

logged. The options are:

 

 

Always. Always log traffic considered by this rule, whether it

 

 

matches or not. This is useful when you are debugging your rules.

 

 

Never. Never log traffic considered by this rule, whether it

 

 

matches or not.

 

 

 

 

Bandwidth Profile

Bandwidth limiting determines how the data is sent to and from your

LAN WAN rules

 

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 171. Bandwidth

 

 

limiting occurs in the following ways:

 

 

• For outbound traffic. On the available WAN interface in the

 

 

primary WAN mode and auto-rollover mode, and on the selected

 

 

interface in load balancing mode.

 

 

• For inbound traffic. On the LAN interface for all WAN modes.

 

 

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

 

 

 

 

Traffic Meter Profile

Select a traffic meter profile to measure and control traffic that is

LAN WAN rules

 

downloaded, uploaded, or both. The traffic meter profile applies only to

DMZ WAN rule

 

traffic that is covered by this rule. Depending on the configuration of

 

 

the traffic meter profile, when traffic has reached its configured limit,

 

 

traffic is either logged or blocked. For information about creating traffic

 

 

meter profiles, see Create Traffic Meter Profiles on page 174.

 

 

Note: You cannot assign traffic meter profiles to LAN DMZ firewall

 

 

rules.
