Create firewall IP address rules to let any computer send or receive
traffic from, programs, system services, computers or users. IP firewall rules can be
created to provide one of the three actions listed below:
Allow a connection.
Allow a connection only if it
is secured through the use of Internet Protocol security.
Block a connection.
Rules can be created for either inbound or outbound
traffic.
To view an access point's IP firewall rules:
Select the Statistics menu from the Web UI.
Expand the System
node from the navigation pane (on the left-hand side of the screen). The
System node expands to display the RF Domains created within the managed
network.
Expand an RF Domain node, select a controller or service platform, and
select one of its connected access
points. The access point's statistics menu displays in the right-hand
side of the screen, with the Health tab selected by default.
Expand the Firewall menu.
Select IP Firewall Rules.
The Statistics > AP > Firewall
> IP Firewall Rule screen displays in the right-hand pane.
This screen displays the following:
