ZyXEL Communications 10, 50 Step, Figure 16-1Activate the Firewall

ZyWALL 10/50 Internet Security Gateway

Step 1. Activate the firewall. You may activate the firewall through the web configurator as shown next (click Configuration, the Config tab, then click the Firewall Enabled check box) or through SMT menu 21.2. You can only configure the firewall using the web configurator or CI commands (see Appendices). When the firewall is active, the default rules allow all traffic from the local network to the WAN (Internet) and block all traffic from the Internet to the local network.

Check here to activate the firewall. You may also activate the firewall in SMT menu 21.2.
