Configuring Firewall Policies
Configuring firewall policies requires configuring the following policies as applicable: Firewall Filtering, NAT Control, DNS Control, and IPS Control policies. For FTP Control settings within Firewall, see About FTP Control.
To configure firewall policies:
- Configure the resources that the policies reference:
- Users, Groups, Departments, Locations, and Sub-locations for your firewall policies.
- Time Intervals.
- Network Applications. You can create network application groups as needed.
- Network Services. You can modify network services to edit services, add custom services, and create groups.
- Source and Destination IPv4 Groups.
- IPv6 Configuration
- Define the rules for each policy:
By default, the Zscaler service listens to the following ports:
- Port 80 for HTTP traffic
- Port 443 for HTTPS traffic
- Port 53 for DNS traffic
- Port 21 for FTP traffic
- Port 554 for RTSP traffic
- Port 1723 for PPTP traffic
If your organization uses other or additional ports for these types of traffic, you can configure the service to use custom ports for these services.
- Enable the firewall per location.
Advanced Firewall is required to configure and apply policies based on users, groups, departments, or network applications.
