FireWall: Create a New Firewall Rule

Creating and Managing Network Traffic Rules

This guide outlines two methods for managing network traffic rules within the application: using the automatic prompt or manually creating a Firewall Rule.

Version Note

These steps use Intego ONE Application version 1.2.0. Please note that the interface and specific steps may appear differently in newer versions.

1. Automatic Traffic Filtering

When the Traffic Filtering Switch is enabled, the application automatically prompts you to create a network traffic rule whenever a new application or domain attempts to access your network.

  • A pop-up notification will appear, allowing you to choose one of the following actions:
    • Allow access to your Network.
    • Deny access to your Network.
    • Allow Only Once (by checking the designated option).

2. Manually Creating a Firewall Rule

You can also manually define a rule by navigating to the FireWall Main Dashboard.

  1. Select "Create" within the New Rule widget, located in the Accessory View section.
  2. Select the Application: Choose the application the rule will apply to.
    • Select one of the three suggested applications (recently opened).
    • Select "Any app" to apply the rule universally.
    • Select "Other" to manually select a specific application from the pop-up window.
  3. Select the Action: Determine how the rule should handle network access for the selected application:
    • Allow: Grants network access.
    • Ask: Prompts for permission each time network access is requested.
    • Deny: Blocks network access.
  4. Select Traffic Direction: Choose the direction of network traffic the rule applies to:
    • All (Incoming and Outgoing)
    • Incoming
    • Outgoing
  5. (Optional) Configure Advanced Settings: Further narrow down the rule by applying it to a specific:
    • Website, Domain, or IP address.
    • TCP/UDP port.
  6. Finalize Creation: Once all sections are configured, select "Create".

The new rule will then appear in the Traffic Control Settings.
