Levi 0 Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 Hello I have ESMC and EES clients with policy based firewall. When a firewall policy are applied on clients, the built-in rules are deleted, even when I choose append rules to existing on client. Is this the desired behavior? Is there a method to keep the built-in rules? Thanks Levi
Administrators Marcos 5,735 Posted October 24, 2019 Administrators Posted October 24, 2019 When creating a policy, do you remove the built-in rules from the list first, add your own rules and then apply it on clients with the option to append ? Are you referring to built-in rules that exist on clients or that are in the policy that you create?
Levi 0 Posted October 25, 2019 Author Posted October 25, 2019 The client is EES with policy-based firewall. By default, the built-in rules allow the agent communication and many other things. I creating on the ESMC a policy with 2 firewall rules, nothing more or less. Then I assign to the client the policy, After the next client connection to the ESMC, the clients built-in firewall rules are deleted remaining just the two rules assigned by the ESMC. Thanks Levi
ESET Staff MichalJ 434 Posted October 25, 2019 ESET Staff Posted October 25, 2019 You have two options to test: when configuring the two custom rules, click on "show predefined rules" in the list, and then with "shown" set the list of rules to "replace" or you can "append" with the "local list", as the list of predefined rules is considered "local"
