4.2.5  Allow WAN-to-LAN Traffic through the Firewall
By default, the ZyWALL blocks any traffic initiated from the WAN to the LAN. To have the 
ZyWALL forward traffic initiated from the WAN to a local computer or server on the LAN, 
you need to configure a firewall rule to allow it.
In this example, you create the firewall rules to allow traffic from the WAN to the following 
servers on the LAN:
• Web server
• Mail server
• FTP server
Figure 59   Tutorial Example: Forwarding Incoming FTP Traffic to a Local Computer 
Click SECURITY > FIREWALL.
Make sure the firewall is enabled and traffic from the WAN to the LAN is dropped.
