WAN Users—These settings determine which packets are covered by the rule, based on their
source (WAN) IP address. Select the desired option:

Any — all IP addresses are covered by this rule.

Address range — if this option is selected, you must enter the Start and Finish fields.

Single address — enter the required address in the Start field.

Log—You can select whether the traffic will be logged. The choices are:

Never — no log entries will be made for this service.

Always — any traffic for this service type will be logged.

Match — traffic of this type which matches the parameters and action will be logged.

Not match — traffic of this type which does not match the parameters and action will be
logged.

Inbound Rule Example: Allowing Videoconferencing

If you want to allow incoming videoconferencing to be initiated from a restricted range of outside
IP addresses, such as from a branch office, you can create an inbound rule. In the example shown
here, CU-SeeMe connections are allowed only from a specified range of external IP addresses. In
this case, we have also specified logging of any incoming CU-SeeMe requests that do not match
the allowed parameters.
