Configuring policies for firewall protection
Policies define the operational settings for all your protection services. See Setting up policies
on page 75 for general information about using policies.
See The SonicWALL Default policy on page 76 for a table listing the firewall protection settings
in the SonicWALL Default policy.
By default, users configure their own firewall protection settings. When you set up a policy, you
can specify whether to allow users to change their settings.
Note
On the Groups + Policies page, use the Desktop Firewall tab to configure basic settings for the
firewall protection service.
Specify who configures firewall protection settings
Install the firewall protection service via policy
Enable firewall protection
Select a firewall protection mode
Specify a connection type
Set up allowed Internet applications
Specify whether to use SonicWALL recommendations
For maximum protection, we recommend that you configure firewall protection settings. If
users change their settings, we recommend that you review their changes regularly. It is
important that mobile users who connect to both secure (trusted) and unsecure (untrusted)
networks be able to update the settings as their location changes.
