Creating Firewall Policies

Configure firewall settings for your endpoints by creating one or more firewall policies in the Firewall Policy Settings Wizard. Next, create a Task to deploy the action. Structure the policy to Allow or Deny all inbound and outbound network connections by setting the Security Level. A security level of High creates a default behavior of Deny for all ports, while Low does the opposite. From there, you can add individual port exceptions and/or use any of the 30 pre-set exceptions for common ports (such as HTTP, FTP, SMTP) that are available as Global exception rules. Completed policies are available in the Policy List. You can select one or more policies from the list to include in a Task for deployment to the endpoints you specify.
