Protection against network attacks 149
Step One:
Figure 51. Creating a new application rule
• Enter a name for the rule. The program uses a default name that you
should replace.
• Select network connection settings for the rule: remote IP address,
remote port, local IP address, and the time that the rule was applied.
Check all the settings that you want to use in the rule.
• Configure settings for user notifications. If you want a popup message
with a brief commentary to appear on the screen when a rule is used,
check Notify User. If you want the program to record invocations of
the rule in the Firewall report, check Log event. The box is not
checked by default when the rule is created. You are advised to use
additional settings when creating block rules.
Note that when you a create a blocking rule in Firewall training mode,
information about the rule being applied will automatically be entered in
the report. If you do not need to record this information, deselect the Log
event checkbox in the settings for that rule.
Step Two in creating a rule is assigning values for rule parameters and selecting
actions. These operations are carried out in the Rule Description section.
