Setting Firewall Access Rules
This is an overview of the SonicWall network security appliance default access rules and custom access rules. Access rules are network management tools that allow you to define inbound and outbound access policies, configure user authentication, and enable remote management of your firewall. This section provides configuration examples to customize your access rules to meet your business requirements.
Access rules are network management tools that allow you to define ingress and egress access policy, configure user authentication, and enable remote management of the SonicWall security appliance.
The POLICY | Rules and Policies > Access Rules page provides a sortable access rule management interface. The subsequent sections provide high-level overviews on configuring access rules by zones and configuring bandwidth management using access rules.
The rules are categorized into separate tables for each source zone to destination zone and for IPv4/IPv6. Accordingly, all the priority types only apply within the rule table to which the rule belongs.
