This chapter includes various examples that illustrate how to use firewall rules to man-

users from viruses, malware and other common exploits.
The following examples provide sample firewall rules for various scenarios. Each
example includes an overview of the rules necessary for the scenario and the order in
which rules should be applied to ensure most efficient rule processing.
These examples assume a network layout similar to that in the figure below.
