Set the following parameters:
Source Address - The source address of the packets sent to or received from the
network object. To add an address:
1. Select Specify Address from the drop-down list. The screen refreshes and
an “Add” link appears.
2. Click Add, then add a new network object (see the “Advanced Settings”
chapter to learn how to add a network object). Clicking Add is the same as
clicking “New Entry” in the “Network Objects” screen.
Destination Address - The destination address of the packets sent to or
received from the network object. This address can be configured in the same
manner as the source address.
Protocol - Choose a specific traffic protocol from the drop-down list, or add a
new one. To add a new traffic protocol:
1. Select Specify Address from the drop-down list. The screen refreshes and
an “Add” link appears.
2. Click Add, and add a new protocol (see the “Advanced Settings” chapter to
learn how to add a protocol). Note that clicking Add is equivalent to click-
ing “New Entry” in the “Protocols” screen.
Set Priority - Activate this check box to add a priority to the rule. The screen
will refresh, allowing a selection between one of eight priority levels, zero being
the lowest and seven the highest (each priority level is mapped to low/medium/
high priority). This sets the priority of a packet on the connection matching the
rule, while routing the packet.
Set DSCP - Activate this check box to mark a DSCP value on packets matching
a connection that matches this rule. The screen will refresh, allowing the user to
enter the Hex value of the
DSCP .
Log Packets Matched by This Rule - Check this check box to log the first pack-
et from a connection matched by this rule.
Schedule - By default, the rule will always be active. However, scheduler rules
can be configured to define time segments during which the rule may be active.
