4.2.5 Allow WAN-to-LAN Traffic through the Firewall

By default, the ZyWALL blocks any traffic initiated from the WAN to the LAN. To have the ZyWALL forward traffic initiated from the WAN to a local computer or server on the LAN, you need to configure a firewall rule to allow it.

In this example, you create the firewall rules to allow traffic from the WAN to the following servers on the LAN:

•Web server

•Mail server

•FTP server
