Blocking period: Enter the number of seconds to block a brute-force attack.
Blocking conditions: Enter the number of authentication failures allowed per second before the block starts. You can set the
number of failures allowed both on page level and device level.

Default Policy: Select the default state for the firewall.
• Allow: Allows all connections to the device. This option is set by default.

• Time in seconds: Set a time limit for testing the rules. The default time limit is set to 300 seconds. To activate the
rules straight away, set the time to 0 seconds.
• Confirm rules: Confirm the rules and their time limit. If you have set a time limit of more than 1 second, the rules will
be active during this time. If you have set the time to 0, the rules will be active straight away.
Pending rules: An overview of the latest tested rules that you are yet to confirm.
Note
The rules that have a time limit appears both under Pending rules and Active rules until the set time has passed, or until
you confirm them. If you don't confirm them, they appear only under Pending rules, and the firewall falls back to the
previously defined settings. If you confirm them, they will replace the current active rules.
Confirm rules: Click to activate the pending rules.
Active rules: An overview of the rules you are currently running on the device.
