Factory default protection profiles Getting started
The factory default firewall configuration is the same in NAT/Route and Transparent
mode.
Factory default protection profiles
Use protection profiles to apply different protection settings for traffic that is controlled
by firewall policies. You can use protection profiles to:
• Configure antivirus protection for HTTP, FTP, IMAP, POP3, and SMTP firewall
policies
• Configure Web filtering for HTTP firewall policies
• Configure Web category filtering for HTTP firewall policies
• Configure spam filtering for IMAP, POP3, and SMTP firewall policies
• Enable the Intrusion Protection System (IPS) for all services
• Enable content logging for HTTP, FTP, IMAP, POP3, and SMTP firewall policies
Using protection profiles, you can build protection configurations that can be applied
to different types of firewall policies. This allows you to customize types and levels of
protection for different firewall policies.
For example, while traffic between internal and external addresses might need strict
protection, traffic between trusted internal addresses might need moderate protection.
You can configure firewall policies for different traffic services to use the same or
different protection profiles.
Protection profiles can be added to NAT/Route mode and Transparent mode firewall
policies.
