To build and edit the Output Chain, select the
Output
tab. The output chain regulates the outbound access. If you once applied
Normal firewall mode
before selecting
Advanced firewall mode with default policy Accept/Drop
, the output chain consists of 13 default rules. If you selected
Advanced firewall mode with default policy Accept/Drop
while configuring the Container firewall at the first time, the output chain has the default system policy access rule only.
The default rules list is the same as in the Input Chain , the only difference being the output , instead of the input characteristic of the rules. The list of rules on this page is this:
The default system policy access rule cannot be changed as this rule decides the packet's destiny - to accept or to drop - when the packet has not any other rule to be processed by.
If, for some reason, you need to have this rule set back, click Firewall setup and select the Normal firewall mode radio button.
The attributes of the rules in the chain are described on the Building Input Chain subsection .
Here you can edit, add, delete, enable, disable, filter or move in the list any or all of the 13 default rules the output chain consists of. To edit a rule, click its name in the name column.To add a specific rule, click
