Adding a rule (F-Secure)

To add a rule:

1. 1. Go to Profiles and select a profile.

The General settings page opens.

1. 1. From the left pane, select Firewall.

The Firewall page opens.

1. 1. Select the profile that you want to edit or to which you want to add a new rule.

In the Firewall rules table, you can see the rules that have been created for the selected firewall profile.

1. Do one of the following:
   • To add a new rule, select Add rule at the top of the table.
   • To edit an existing rule, select the row to edit it.

     Note: We do not recommend that you delete rules, but rather deactivate those that you feel are not needed.

2. Enter values for the rule or edit the existing ones in the following fields:
   • • Give the new rule a name and add a description

   In the Action and direction column, select either to allow or block incoming or outgoing traffic.

   In the Attributes column, do the following:

   • Select a protocol
   • Enter the local and remote IP addresses

     Note: You can leave these empty unless you want to allow a specific IP address or range

   • Enter the local port number to allow traffic to come through this specific port
   • Enter the remote port number to allow traffic to come from specific port
   • Enter the service name.
   • Enter the application path
   • Select the interface type

   Note: By selecting Automatic selection in the Select F-Secure firewall profile drop-down menu, you can add one or more rules to assign a specific firewall profile when you, for example, need to take your laptop out of the office network range.
