Setting up Outpost Firewall

The choices you can make for an application in Rules Wizard mode are as follows:

Choice Purpose Result

Allow all activities for

this application

For applications you trust

completely.

All network requests by this application are

allowed and the application is given the status

Trusted application.

Stop all activities for

this application

For applications that

should not be allowed

network access

All network activities for this application are

disabled. The application is given the status

Blocked application.

Create rules using

preset

Restrict access for

applications that interfere

with network under

specific protocols, via

specific ports, etc.

Creates a rule for the application that limits

network access to specific ports and protocols

using presets designed by our engineers that are

optimum for most purposes. This application

will be included in the Partially allowed

applications list.

Allow once For applications that you

are doubtful of but want

to see what they do with

the connection.

Data from specified local port to specified

remote port and address is allowed during this

single communication. The next time this

application tries to establish a network

connection, this same dialog window appears.

No rule is created for the application.

Block once For applications that you

do not trust but do not

want to block totally.

Data from specified local port to specified

remote port and address is blocked during this

single communication. The next attempt by this

application to establish a network connection

results in this same dialog window. No rule is

created for the application.

Outpost Firewall will detect most of the applications that regularly access the network

after working a day or so in Rules Wizard mode. Once Outpost Firewall has registered

most of your applications, you can switch to Block most mode.

You can also create your own rule for an application rather than select one of the presets.

To create a rule, click the down arrow at the right side of the Create rules using preset

pull down. Select Other from the drop-down list and click OK. This brings up the Rules

dialog where you can create any rule for this application.

Note: In the case when some application requests the connection to the server that has

several IP addresses, Outpost Firewall automatically detects all server addresses and

configures corresponding rules for all server IP addresses according to the action you

specify.
