are required for operation on the Verizon network.
To configure advanced filtering rules, click Add next to the rule title. The "Add
Advanced Filter" screen appears.

To apply a firewall rule, a match must be made between IP addresses or ranges
and ports. Use the "Source Address" and "Destination Address" drop-down lists

defined when selecting protocols. For example, if the FTP protocol is selected,
port 21 will be checked for matching traffic flow between the defined source
and destination IPs.
6.9d Operation
This is where the action the rule will take is defined. Select one of the following
radio buttons:
Drop
• - Deny access to packets that match the source and destination IP
addresses and VCP reset to the origination peer.
