LAN to LAN/ Router and WAN to WAN/ Router rules applies to packets coming in on the
associated interface (LAN or WAN respectively). LAN to LAN/ Router means policies for
LAN-to-Prestige (the policies for managing the Prestige through the LAN interface) and
policies for LAN-to-LAN (the policies that control routing between two subnets on the LAN).
Similarly, WAN to WAN/ Router polices apply in the same way to the WAN port.
14.4.1 LAN to WAN Rules
The default rule for LAN to WAN traffic is that all users on the LAN are allowed non-
restricted access to the WAN. When you configure a LAN to WAN rule, you in essence want
to limit some or all users from accessing certain services on the WAN. See the following
figure.
Figure 65 LAN to WAN Traffic
14.4.2 WAN to LAN Rules
The default rule for WAN to LAN traffic blocks all incoming connections (WAN to LAN). If
you wish to allow certain WAN users to have access to your LAN, you will need to create
custom rules to allow it.
See the following figure.
