default, the rule is always active. However, you can configure scheduler rules by
selecting 'User Defined', and then defining the day and time period during which the
rule is active. Once a scheduler rule(s) is defined, the 'Schedule' drop-down list allows

rules and make a distinction between rules that apply to WAN and LAN devices.

1. Click the Advanced Filtering item (Configuration tab > Data Settings menu >

Figure 3-65: Configuring Advanced Filtering
This page consists of two identical groups, one for 'Input Rule Sets' and the other for
'Output Rule Sets', which are for configuring inbound and outbound traffic,
respectively. Each group is comprised of subsets, which can be grouped into three
main subjects:
• Initial rules: these rules are applied first, on all the device's hosts.
• Network devices rules: these rules can be defined per device's host.
• Final rules: these rules are applied last, on all the device's hosts.
