Setting Firewall Rules Manually based on IFS Objects with the Rule Wizard

NOTE: You can only set Firewall rules manually with the rule wizard if you have set the Wizard type to *STD when opening the wizard.

To set rules manually based on the users or groups requesting the activity in the Rule Wizard, open the Plan IFS Security screen, as shown in Analyzing Recent Data on IFS Objects with the Rule Wizard (STRFW > 5 > 42).

Enter new values in the second field of each column for which you want to change access in the rows for the appropriate rule. You can enter Y to accept requests, S to accept requests but do not log them, or N to reject requests.

When you have entered the letters for the changes in the appropriate columns, type 6 in the Opt field for the rule and press Enter.

The rule that you have changed disappears from the screen. You can see its changed value by checking the Work with IFS Security screen, as shown in Setting Firewall Rules for IFS Objects.
