• Protocol — Creates an rule based on a specific protocol.
— Select from List — Selects from a protocols list on which rule can be based. The
possible field values are:
ICMP — Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP). The ICMP allows the
gateway or destination host to communicate with the source host. For
example, to report a processing error.
IGMP — Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP). Allows hosts to
notify their local switch or router that they want to receive transmissions
assigned to a specific multicast group.
IP — Internet Protocol (IP). Specifies the format of packets and their
addressing method. IP addresses packets and forwards the packets to the
correct port.
TCP — Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). Enables two hosts to
communicate and exchange data streams. TCP guarantees packet delivery,
and guarantees packets are transmitted and received in the order the are sent.
EGP — Exterior Gateway Protocol (EGP). Permits exchanging routing
information between two neighboring gateway hosts in an autonomous
systems network.
IGP — Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP). Allows for routing information
exchange between gateways in an autonomous network.
UDP — User Datagram Protocol (UDP). Communication protocol that
transmits packets but does not guarantee their delivery.
HMP — Host Mapping Protocol (HMP). Collects network information from
various networks hosts. HMP monitors hosts spread over the internet as well
as hosts in a single network.
RDP — Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP). Allows a clients to communicate
with the Terminal Server over the network.
IDRP— Matches the packet to the Inter-Domain Routing Protocol (IDRP).
RVSP — Matches the packet to the ReSerVation Protocol (RSVP).
AH — Authentication Header (AH). Provides source host authentication and
data integrity.
EIGRP — Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP). Provides
fast convergence, support for variable-length subnet mask, and supports
multiple network layer protocols.
OSPF — The Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol is a link-state,
hierarchical interior gateway protocol (IGP) for network routing Layer Two
(2) Tunneling Protocol, an extension to the PPP protocol that enables ISPs to
operate Virtual Private Networks (VPNs).
IPIP — IP over IP (IPIP). Encapsulates IP packets to create tunnels between
two routers. This ensures that the IPIP tunnel appears as a single interface,
rather than several separate interfaces. IPIP enables tunnel intranets occur the
internet, and provides an alternative to source routing.
PIM — Matches the packet to Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM).
L2TP— Matches the packet to Layer 2 Internet Protocol (L2IP).
ISIS — Intermediate System - Intermediate System (ISIS). Distributes IP
routing information throughout a single Autonomous System in IP networks
