Configuring Advanced Firewall Settings

Advanced options let you configure the firewall for a variety of special situations, such as gateway enforcement. Here, you can:

• Configure general settings that control global rules pertaining to certain protocols, packet types, and types of traffic. These apply to both - the Trusted Zone and the Public Zone.
• Configure network settings to include newly detected networks in the Trusted Zone, so that traditional local network activities, such as file and printer sharing, are not interrupted.

  Note - ZoneAlarm Free Antivirus + Firewall security software detects only networks that your computer is physically connected to. Routed or virtual network connections are not detected.
