Hello all,
I've just moved to this FW because it seems a nice free and light on resources FW.
However, i could not understand how to set rules per application...
It's seems to me you can only have global rule set and just specify if an application will be allowed to follow this rule set or be blocked completely.
Is it indeed all you can do?
Thanks in advance, Adam.

The answer I'm afraid would be yes. The next version will not improve much this section. In future versions we plan to enhance support for application and will have much more options.

Hello all.
Instead of opening a new thread, thought I'll give this one a major bump.
I can see nothing changed regarding this issue as of current version, but would like to know if such change is planned for the near future.
Thanks in advance.

In this current version, there are no rules generated for each specific application. You can create rules that can apply for the applications you wish to have strict traffic (ie, specify the port/protocol used by the application and have it allowed/blocked). However, in the next version each application will have their own specific set of rules, and you can tweak it in the Expert User Mode.

That sounds great, AChen.
Another reason to keep an eye on this FW.
Thanks :-)
