Configuring Firewall Settings
Configuring common services for incoming traffic
The Firebox X Edge e-Series includes standard services known as common services that you can use to
control traffic through the Edge. You can use the procedure below to configure the properties of a com-
mon service.
For more information on common services, refer to the list at the end of this FAQ:

You must log in to your LiveSecurity account to see this FAQ.
1 To connect to the System Status page, type https:// in the browser address bar, and the IP
address of the Firebox X Edge trusted interface.
The default URL is: https://192.168.111.1
2 From the navigation bar, select Firewall > Incoming.
The Filter Incoming Traffic page appears.
3 Find the common service to allow into your trusted or optional network from the external network.
From the Filter drop-down list adjacent to the service name, select Allow or Deny.
If you select No Rule, the traffic is denied unless you create a custom service to allow that traffic.
For more information, see “Adding a custom incoming service manually” on page 80, or “Adding a custom service
using the wizard” on page 85.
4 If you allow the service, enter the IP address of the service host.
The service host is the computer on the trusted or optional network that receives the traffic.
5 If you redirect the service to another port, type the port number.
For more information, see “Working with Firewall NAT” on page 97.
6 Click Submit.
7 Repeat steps 1-6 to allow or deny more common services.
Note
If you set a common service to Allow, the Firebox X Edge allows traffic that uses that service from any
source on the external network. Traffic from that service goes to the service host.
To limit the external sources that can use the ports and protocols of the service you are adding, create a
custom service.
