NOTE To active and de-activate Firewall activity, use options 21 and 22, to suspend and resume Firewall. Do not use options 51 and 52, which only activate and deactivate the ZFIREWALL subsystem, unless instructed to do so by technical support. DB statistics activity and sending SIEM are related to subsystem activity. When the subsystem is not active, you might notice delays in writing log entries.

To suspend Firewall, select 21. Suspend Firewall (before upgrade). The Set Firewall Security (SETFWSEC) screen appears with default values for the SETFWSEC command for suspending Firewall. To accept the defaults, press Enter. All Firewall activity is suspended.

To resume Firewall after it has been suspended, select 22. Resume Firewall (after upgrade). The Set Firewall Security (SETFWSEC) screen appears with default values for the SETFWSEC command for resuming Firewall. To accept the defaults, press Enter. Firewall activity resumes.

When tech support tells you to de-activate only the ZFIREWALL subsystem, select 52. De-activate ZFIREWALL Subsystem. The End Subsystem (ENDSBS) screen appears with default values for the ENDSBS command to de-activate Firewall. To accept the defaults, press Enter. The Firewall subsystem, ZFIREWALL, ends, but data continues to be written to the DTAQ.

When tech support tells you to re-activate only the ZFIREWALL subsystem, select 51. Activate ZFIREWALL Subsystem. The Start Subsystem (STRSBS) screen appears with default values for the STRSBS command. To accept the defaults, press Enter. The Firewall subsystem, ZFIREWALL, resumes.
