Example Firewall Rules

This chapter gives examples for configuring various rules for WAN to LAN and LAN to WAN.

19.1 Examples

Whenever you open a hole in the firewall to forward a service from the Internet to the local network, and
NAT is also enabled, you may have to also configure a server behind NAT using SMT menu 15.2. Please
see the NAT chapter for more detailed information and also see Figure 14-5 for a view of how filtering, the
firewall and NAT interact.

19.1.1 Example 1: Firewall Rule To Allow Web Service From The Internet

Let’s say you have one server on the local network, with an IP of 10.100.1.2, supporting FTP, HTTP,

[email protected]

. Another

network administrator has an e-mail address of

[email protected]

. Here are the steps you would follow.
