4-8 Protecting Your Network

• 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 fields.

•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

in Figure 4-6, 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.
