Permissions |
Permissions are rules applied to user accounts that allow or deny them access to folders and devices. |
Firewall policies |
Firewall policies are rules applied to VPN packets that control if certain protocols, ports, IP addresses are allowed or denied access to devices. Firewall policies have to be imported or defined first, then applied either directly to a single device or to folders to affect all the devices contained therein. The firewall policies applied are defined according to the user account, so different user accounts can be assigned different policies.
