Download WANGuard Platform 3.0 User Manual

WANGuard™ Lite 3.1 User Manual
To ease the confguraton of IP Zones, every new IP class that you defne, inherits by default the
propertes of the closest ( having the biggest CIDR ) IP class that includes it. The only IP class that does not
inherit any propertes is the 0.0.0.0/0 IP class, because there is no other IP class that includes it.
WANGuard Sensor must learn from it's IP Zone the propertes of the IP addresses it analyzes. This is
why, if WANGuard Sensor cannot include a detected IP address in the IP classes you defned, it applies the
propertes of the 0.0.0.0/0 IP class. So, for unknown IP addresses, the 0.0.0.0/0 propertes are applied.
In the last secton of this chapter you can see an example on how inheritance works.
