Outbound Firewall Rules

You can add firewall rules to block or allow specific traffic. For information about inbound
rules, see Set Up a Custom Port Forwarding Service
Note: This feature is for advanced administrators only. Incorrect
configuration causes serious problems.
By default your gateway blocks any inbound traffic from the Internet to your computers
except for replies to your outbound traffic. You might need to create exceptions to this rule to
allow remote computers to access a server on your local network or to allow certain
applications and games to work correctly. Your gateway provides firewall rules for creating
these exceptions.
Authorized communications are established according to inbound and outbound rules.You
can create custom rules to further restrict the outbound communications or more widely open
the inbound communications.
