Once you have entered all applicable information, click Add
Inbound Policy
. From the subsequent page that displays, you can

move or edit this policy using the Up, Dn (short for Down), Edit,
and Delete buttons. Important: The firewall applies all

inbound policies in a top-down order according to their location in

the policy table. Once you have completed the creation of your

rules, use the Up and Dn buttons to put them in order in the table

from top to bottom. You can always add an All policy at the

bottom of the list, so that if there are any packets that don’t match
any of the above policies in the list, they will be denied (if you set

up Deny All), or permitted (if you set up Allow All).

Outbound Policies

Outbound firewall policies allow you to filter the traffic that users
inside the firewall—on the X5v’s LAN side—are allowed to send
out over the Internet—to the WAN side.
