13. Refer to the Access Control field. As part of the port’s security configuration, Inbound IP and

MAC address firewall rules are required.

Use the Inbound IP Firewall Rules and Inbound MAC Firewall Rules drop-down menus to select the
firewall rules to apply to this profile’s Ethernet port configuration.

The firewall inspects IP and MAC traffic flows and detects attacks typically not visible to traditional
wired firewall appliances.

configuration, select the Create icon to define a new rule configuration.

15. Refer to the Trust field to define the following:

and forwarded on this port, and a DHCP server can be connected only to a DHCP trusted port.
The default value is enabled.
