Edge Rules

Edge rules can be used to block traffic that should not be allowed on your server. It is recommended to use edge rules to block any traffic that is not allowed on your server. The edge rule system is a standalone system, it does not influence the other protection systems.

How to create an edge rule

To create an edge rule, you need to navigate to the Edge Rules page, on this page you will be able to create a rule by clicking the New Rule button.

Edge rule priority system

Every edge rule has a unique priority number, this priority number decides the order in which rules are being applied.

The rule with the lowest priority number is applied first, and the rule with the highest priority number is applied last.

Creating a rule with priority 1 which allows TCP traffic to port 22 before a rule with priority 2 which blocks all TCP traffic will result in all TCP traffic being blocked except to port 22.
