DESCRIPTION
Select this option to enable this firewall rule.
Use the drop-down list box to select what the firewall is to do with packets that
match this rule.
Select Drop to silently discard the packets without sending a TCP reset packet
or an ICMP destination-unreachable message to the sender.
Select Reject to deny the packets and send a TCP reset packet (for a TCP
packet) or an ICMP destination-unreachable message (for a UDP packet) to the
sender.
Select Permit to allow the passage of the packets.
Do you want your rule to apply to packets with a particular (single) IP, a range of
IP addresses (e.g., 192.168.1.10 to 192.169.1.50), a subnet or any IP address?
Select an option from the drop-down list box that includes: Single Address,
Range Address, Subnet Address and Any Address.
Enter the single IP address or the starting IP address in a range here.
Enter the ending IP address in a range here.
Enter the subnet mask here, if applicable.
Click Add >> to add a new address to the Source or Destination Address box.
You can add multiple addresses, ranges of addresses, and/or subnets.
To edit an existing source or destination address, select it from the box and click
Edit <<.
Highlight an existing source or destination address from the Source or
Destination Address box above and click Delete to remove it.
Please see Section 11.8 on page 183

Click the Edit Customized Services link to bring up the screen that you use to
configure a new custom service that is not in the predefined list of services.
Select everyday or the day(s) of the week to apply the rule.
Select All Day or enter the start and end times in the hour-minute format to
apply the rule.
This field determines if a log for packets that match the rule is created or not. Go

the ZyXEL Device record these logs.
Select the check box to have the ZyXEL Device generate an alert when the rule
is matched.
