The Firewall configuration windowis used to configure an Access Control List (ACL).The Access Control List lets you restrict traffic to, from, or between specific IP hosts, subnets, ornetworks. You can configure access control restrictions based on the following:• The source, destination, or a combination of the source and destination address of a packet.• The upper layer protocol type of a packet such as TCP, UDP, ICMP, or all TCP/IP protocols.• The TCP or UDP port number of a packet.• Interface Number.When an IP Access Control List (ACL) is enabled on a router port, each packet forwarded out thisport is first checked against the ACL. If the address(es) of a packet match the address(es) in thefirst filter in the list, the packet is permitted or denied as specified by that filter. If there is no match,the packet is checked against the second filter, and so on, until a match is found, or until the packethas been checked against all of the filters in the list. If the packet does not match any of the filters,then the packet is permitted to pass through the port.The Add Firewall Entry window (shown on the following page in Figure 126) appears when youclick on theAdd Firewall button in the Firewall Entries panel (upper half) of the Firewall ConfigurationWindow.
