8.6 F ILTER WIZARD
Note:
The Filter wizard may also be started using the start page of the Web interface.
The filter wizard supports you in creating rules in such way that a step-by-step user
interface automatically creates prompts for the most frequently used configuration
parameters of rules.
Note:
Rules will be processed in the order of the list. If a rule is true, then processing for this
packet will be finished.
A rule set is only considered for a packet if the „in/outbound“ interface setting matches
the packet.
When running through a rule set, the rules contained in the set are run through from top
to bottom.
Once a rule matches exactly with the packet in a running rule set, the related action will
be executed and no other rule be checked.
Each rule set may contain up to 10 rules whereas all rules of a rule set must have the
same configuration with regard to the respective inbound or outbound interface. The
active Layer 2 rule sets are displayed on the main page of the packet filter.
The rule sets displayed on the basis of inbound and outbound interfaces can be restricted
by means of a filter function at the end of the page. This has no impact on the
functionality of the rules, i.e. non-displayed rules are nevertheless active.
New rule sets can be added by means of the toolbar above the filter function for inbound
and outbound interfaces. By clicking on the plus symbol, a dialogue will appear leading the
user step by step through the setting options of the various log levels.
In the operation mode of Extended IP Router with selected Layer 2 level, only Open VPN
interfaces can be filtered. The Layer 3 level allows filtration of all interfaces with an IP
address in any direction.
Only those rule sets appear in the list for which the inbound and outbound interfaces and
the communication direction match.
