ProSafe Wireless-N VPN Firewall SRXN3205 Reference Manual
See
"Managing Groups and Hosts (LAN Groups)" on page 3-4
this feature.
Schedule
If you have set firewall rules on the Rules screen, you can configure three different schedules (for
example, schedule 1, schedule 2, and schedule 3) for when a rule is to be applied. Once a schedule
is configured, it affects all Rules that use this schedule. You specify the days of the week and time
of day for each schedule.
See
"Setting Schedules to Block or Allow Traffic" on page 5-17
this feature.
Block Sites
If you want to reduce traffic by preventing access to certain sites on the Internet, you can use the
VPN firewall's filtering feature. By default, this feature is disabled; all requested traffic from any
Web site is allowed.
Keyword (and Domain Name) Blocking. You can specify up to 32 words that, should they
appear in the Web site name (i.e., URL) or in a newsgroup name, will cause that site or
newsgroup to be blocked by the VPN firewall.
You can apply the keywords to one or more groups. Requests from the PCs in the groups for
which keyword blocking has been enabled will be blocked. Blocking does not occur for the
PCs that are in the groups for which keyword blocking has not been enabled.
You can bypass keyword blocking for trusted domains by adding the exact matching domain
to the list of Trusted Domains. Access to the domains on this list by PCs even in the groups for
which keyword blocking has been enabled will still be allowed without any blocking.
Web Component blocking. You can block the following Web component types: Proxy, Java,
ActiveX, and Cookies. Sites on the Trusted Domains list are still subject to Web component
blocking when the blocking of a particular Web component has been enabled.
See
"Setting Block Sites (Content Filtering)" on page 5-18
feature.
Source MAC Filtering
If you want to reduce outgoing traffic to prevent Internet access by certain PCs on the LAN, you
can use the source MAC filtering feature to drop the traffic received from the PCs with the
specified MAC addresses. By default, this feature is disabled; all traffic received from PCs with
any MAC address is allowed.
