and the total volume of traffic is displayed. Traffic counters are updated in MBs; the counter starts
only when traffic passed is at least 1 MB. In addition, the popup screen displays the traffic meter’s
start end dates.
When Limit is reached
Block traffic Select one of the following radio buttons to specify what action the UTM performs
when the traffic limit has been reached:
Block All Traffic. All incoming and outgoing Internet and e-mail traffic is
blocked.
Block All Traffic Except E-Mail. All incoming and outgoing Internet traffic is
blocked but incoming and outgoing e-mail traffic is still allowed.
Send e-mail alert An e-mail alert is sent when traffic is blocked. Ensure that e-mailing of logs is
enabled on the Email and Syslog screen (see “Configuring and Activating
System, E-mail, and Syslog Logs” on page 11-6).
