There are a number of ways global firewall settings get applied to clients.
A particular firewall setting can apply to all clients that the server manages.
A setting can apply only to clients with certain firewall privileges. For example, the firewall log sending schedule only applies to clients with the privilege to send logs to the server.
To configure global firewall settings:
Networked Computers > Global Client Settings
Go to the following sections and configure the settings:
|
Global Firewall Settings |
|
Section |
Settings |
|
Firewall Settings |
|
|
Firewall Log Count |
Click Save.
You can grant certain clients the privilege to send firewall logs to the OfficeScan server. Configure the log sending schedule in this section. Only clients with the privilege to send firewall logs will use the schedule.
See Firewall Privileges for information on firewall privileges available to selected clients.
Enable the OfficeScan client to update the Common Firewall Driver only after the client computer restarts. Enable this option to avoid potential client computer disruptions (such as temporary disconnection from the network) when the Common Firewall Driver updates during client upgrade.
This feature only supports clients upgraded from OfficeScan 8.0 SP1 and above.
When you enable this option, OfficeScan clients will send firewall log counts once every hour to the OfficeScan server. For details about firewall logs, see Firewall Logs.
OfficeScan uses log counts and the firewall violation outbreak criteria to determine the possibility of a firewall violation outbreak. OfficeScan sends email notifications to OfficeScan administrators in the event of an outbreak.
