Adding User-Defined Protocols
Click the Add button on the lower left side of the protocol list table. The following fields must
be configured in order to add a protocol.
• Name—Create a unique case-sensitive name.
• Port 1/2—The unique UDP port numbers.
• Timeout—This is optional. IP Helper cache timeout in seconds at an increment of 10. If not
specified, a default value of 30 seconds is selected.
• IP Translation—When selected, the firewall translates the source IP of the forwarded
packet.
• Raw Mode—When selected, IP Helper does not create a cache; Unidirectional forwarding
is supported.
Editing User-Defined Protocols
A user-defined protocol can be deleted by selecting the Delete button next to that protocol. The
user can also select the leftmost checkbox of the desired protocol, then click the Delete button,
located on the lower left side of the table.
Retrieving Counters
By hovering the cursor over a protocol or policy’s “Statistics” image, the counter appears,
displaying the traffic status for that protocol.
