9. Define the following parameters for the IP Firewall Rule:
Precedence
Action
Source
Destination
Specify or modify a precedence for this IP policy between 1-1500. Rules with lower
precedence are always applied to packets first. If modifying a precedence to apply a
higher integer, it will move down the table to reflect its lower priority.
Every IP firewall rule is made up of matching criteria rules. The action defines what to do
with the packet if it matches the specified criteria. The following actions are supported:
• Deny - Instructs the firewall to prohibit a packet from proceeding to its destination.
• Allow - Instructs the firewall to allow a packet to proceed to its destination.
