Traffic Policy

Alternatively you can define the rule to allow only authenticated users to access specific

services. Any user that has a user account in WinRoute will be allowed to access the

Internet after authenticating to the firewall. Firewall administrators can easily monitor

which services and which pages are opened by each user (it is not possible to connect

anonymously).

Figure 7.28

Only authenticated users are allowed to connect to the Internet

For detailed description on user authentication, refer to chapter

10.1

.

Note:

1.

The rules mentioned above can be combined in various ways (i.e. a user group can be

allowed to access certain Internet services only).

2.

Usage of user accounts and groups in traffic policy follows specific rules. For detailed

description on this topic, refer to chapter

7.6

.

Exclusions

You may need to allow access to the Internet only for a certain user/address group, whereas

all other users should not be allowed to access this service.

This will be better understood through the following example (how to allow a user group to

use the Telnet service for access to servers in the Internet). Use the two following rules to meet

these requirements:

First rule will deny selected users (or a group of users/IP addresses, etc.) to access the

Internet.

Second rule will deny the other users to access this service.

Exception — Telnet is available only for selected user group(s)
