Set DMZ WAN Rules

The firewall rules for traffic between the DMZ and the Internet are configured on the DMZ

DMZ to the Internet (outbound) or coming in from the Internet to the DMZ (inbound).

traffic and then blocking only specific services from passing through the UTM. You do so by
adding outbound services rules (see
