18.12 Firewall
Application
You can set up a firewall for the primary network interface of the
control. It can be configured so that incoming network traffic is
blocked and/or a message is displayed depending on the sender
and the service. However, the firewall cannot be started for the
second network interface of the control if it is active as DHCP
server.
Once the firewall has been activated, a symbol appears at the
lower right in the taskbar. The symbol changes depending on the
safety level that the firewall was activated with, and informs about
the level of the safety settings:
Icon Meaning
No firewall protection provided although
it was activated in the configuration. This
can happen, for example, if PC names were
used in the configuration for which there are
no equivalent IP addresses as yet.
Firewall active with medium safety level.
Firewall active with high safety level. (All
services except for the SSH are blocked)
Have the standard settings checked by your network
specialist and change them if necessary.
The settings in the additional tab SSH settings are
in preparation for future enhancements and currently
have no function.
