Customizing the Nokia IP45 Security Platform Security Policy
Nokia IP45 Security Platform User’s Guide v4.0

Note
User defined rules have priority over default rules.
The IP45 device processes user defined rules in the order they appear in the rules table, such that
rule 1 is applied before rule 2 and so on.
Allow and Block Rules
The allow and block rules provide you with greater flexibility in defining and customizing your
security policy. You can allow additional inbound services that are not on the virtual servers list,
or block outbound communications for specific port ranges and protocols.
To permit incoming access from the Internet to your internal network for specific port ranges
and protocols, you must create a new allow rule. To block outgoing access from your internal
network to the Internet for specific port ranges and protocols, create a new block rule.
Note
You can specify the IP address range for the source and destination fields in Allow and
Block rule.
To create a new rule
1.
Choose Security from the main menu.
The Firewall page opens.
2.
Click the Rules tab.
3.
The Rules page opens.
4.
Click Add Rule on the Rules page to select the type of rule, to add.
5.
Select the type of rule, and click Next.

Firewall Rules
This section provides information about the firewall rules that you create.
Note
In IP45 Tele 8, the Allow Rules page does not contain a
VPN Only
column, and the Block
Rules page does not contain an
Also VPN
column.
Allow and Forward Rule
These rules enable you to:
±
Permit incoming access from the Internet to a specific service in your internal network.
±
Forward all such connections to a specific computer in your network.
±
Redirect the specified connections to a specific port. This option is called Port Address
Translation (PAT).
±
Assign traffic to a QoS class.
If traffic shaper is enabled for incoming traffic, then traffic shaper handles relevant connections
as specified in the bandwidth policy for the selected QoS class.
For example, if traffic shaper is enabled for incoming traffic, and you create an allow and
forward rule associating all incoming Web traffic with the Urgent QoS class, then traffic shaper
handles incoming Web traffic as specified in the bandwidth policy for the Urgent class. For
information on Traffic Shaper and QoS classes, see
“Using Traffic Shaper”
on page 127.
This option is only available in IP45 Satellite licenses only. Creating an Allow and Forward rule
is equivalent to defining a server in the Servers page.
Note
You must use
an Allow and Forward
rule to allow incoming connections if your network uses
hide NAT.
Note
You cannot specify two allow and forward rules that forward the same service to two
different destinations.
Creating an Allow and Forward rule is equivalent to defining a server in the servers page.
Note
You can specify the IP address range for the source only.

Allow Rule
This rule enables you to:
±
Permit outgoing access from your internal network to a specific service on the Internet.
±
Permit incoming access from the Internet to a specific service in your internal network.
±
You can specify the IP address range for source and destination fields.
±
Assign traffic to a QoS class.
If traffic shaper is enabled for the direction of traffic specified in the rule (incoming or
outgoing), then traffic shaper handles relevant connections as specified in the bandwidth
policy for the selected QoS class.
For example, if traffic shaper is enabled for outgoing traffic, and you create an allow rule
associating all outgoing Web traffic with the Urgent QoS class, then traffic shaper handles
outgoing Web traffic as specified in the bandwidth policy for the Urgent class.
For information on Traffic Shaper and QoS classes, see
“Using Traffic Shaper”
on page 127.
This feature is available in Satellite licenses only.
Note
You cannot use an Allow rule to permit incoming traffic, if the network or VPN uses Hide
NAT. However, you can use Allow rules for static NAT IP addresses.
You can allow outgoing connections for services that are not permitted by the default security
policy.
You cannot use an allow rule to permit incoming traffic if the network or VPN uses hide NAT.
You can use allow rules for static NAT IP addresses.
Block Rule
This rule enables you to:
±
Block outgoing access from your internal network to a specific service on the Internet.
±
Block incoming access from the Internet to a specific service in your internal network.
±
You can specify the IP address range for source and destination fields.
