Select this option if you have a limited number of systems that you want to disallow. When you set up your individual filters, select those filters that "disallow" (i.e., drop or reject) certain types of connections. For example, you might want to disallow CIFS connections but allow all other types. • Drop Traffic: Disallow the NSS from communicating with any initiating systems. Select this option if you have a limited number of systems that you want to allow to communicate with the NSS. When you set up your filters, select those filters that "allow" certain types of connections. For example, you might only want to allow FTP connections. NOTE If you set the default policy to Drop and you want to enable FTP connections, make sure that you set the FTP connection type on the host to active. (If you set the connection type to passive you can connect to the NSS but are not able to list, transfer the data, and so on.) STEP 3 Click Change Policy.
