About the TCP-UDP-Proxy

Settings Tab

On the Settings tab, you can set basic information about a proxy policy, such as whether it allows or denies traffic, create access rules for a policy, or configure policy-based routing, static NAT, or server load balancing. The Settings tab also shows the port and protocol for the policy, as well as an optional description of the policy. You can use the settings on this tab to set logging, notification, automatic blocking, and timeout preferences.

• Connections are — Specify whether connections are Allowed, Denied, or Denied (send reset) and define who appears in the From and To list (on the Policy tab of the proxy definition). See Set Access Rules for a Policy.
