13.3.3 Example: Allow a Server to Ping the Zyxel Device Without Creating
Logs
A server on the LAN pings the Zyxel Device every 15 seconds to check if the Zyxel Device is connected
to the Internet. The Zyxel Device creates a log every time the server pings it. You want to allow the server
to ping the Zyxel Device without creating so many logs.
This example uses the parameters given below.
User This field is not available when you are configuring a to-Zyxel Device policy.
Select a user name or user group to which to apply the policy. The Security Policy is activated
only when the specified user logs into the system and the policy will be disabled when the user
logs out.
Otherwise, select any and there is no need for user logging.
Note: If you specified a source IP address (group) instead of any in the field below, the
user’s IP address should be within the IP address range.
Schedule Select a schedule that defines when the policy applies. Otherwise, select none and the policy is
always effective.
Action Use the drop-down list box to select what the Security Policy is to do with packets that match this
policy.
Select deny to silently discard the packets without sending a TCP reset packet or an ICMP

unreachable message to the sender.
Select allow to permit the passage of the packets.
