The order of rules is significant. Rules inserted before this set will not be protected by Gauntlet. Any rule appearing after the gauntlet chain rules will automatically be ignored. Consult with RuggedCom support for assistance. If you want to grant SSH access to the router, replace "10000" in the last rule with "22,10000".

When adding these rules via Webmin, for those rules where you select "Gauntlet" from the "Action" pulldown list, be sure to leave the "log to syslog level" set to "<Don't log>". If you manually edit the "/etc/shorewall/rules" file then do not specify any loglevel in your Gauntlet rules.

Note: You must ensure that the firewall is configured and enabled when using the Gauntlet Security Appliance.
