Manage Firewall Configuration
Dome Cloud Firewall provides enterprises with a highly configurable packet filtering firewall which offers the highest levels of security against inbound and outbound threats.
Dome CF allows you to create rules for managing the following types of traffic:
- NAT - (Network address translation) Traffic from external sources directed to a host in the network (Virtual IP) with port forwarding
- Incoming traffic - Traffic from external network zones to specified hosts in the internal network zone
- Outgoing traffic - Traffic from hosts to the external network zone
- Inter-zone traffic - Traffic between network zones connected to Dome CF
- VPN traffic - Traffic generated by VPN users
- System Access - Access to Dome CF
Each traffic type requires a specific type of rule in order to allow or block traffic of that type.
- Click the 'Firewall' tab on the left to open a sub-menu which allows you to create and manage rules.
The following sections provide detailed descriptions on rule construction for each firewall module:
