Network Access Protection
Network Connection Profile Assignment
The network connection profile is assigned automatically.
Network Connection Profiles
Network connection profiles enable you to apply firewall rules to specific categories of network connections. A network connection also inherits a profile's properties, such as trust. You can use built-in or create custom profiles, both are assigned to network connections automatically. Network Connection Profiles can be configured by clicking Edit.
Private Network Connection Profile
A profile for trusted, home or office networks, enabling file and resource sharing between devices and providing a more seamless and collaborative network experience.
Public Network Connection Profile
A profile for public or untrusted network environments, which prioritizes security and restricts sharing of files and resources with other devices on the network.
IP sets
An IP set represents a collection of network addresses that create one logical group. IP sets can be configured by clicking Edit.
Pre-defined IP sets:
•Trusted zone (The actual trusted zone is computed from these addresses and addresses specified in networks marked as trusted networks.)
•Addresses excluded from IDS
•TCP/UDP ports visibility zone (Addresses notified about unavailability of TCP/UDP ports.)
•DNS servers
•Local addresses
•Local subnet
•Private addresses
•Trusted reverse proxies (The list of proxies for which the product is allowed to take the source IP from the X-Forwarded-For header.)
•Local virtual machines (Subnets assigned to virtual adapters connected to internal virtual switches.)
