Allowing Calls to IP Addresses Only if They Come From Known Zones
In addition to making calls to aliases, calls can be made to specified IP addresses. To pass on such calls to the

can set the rule's Source option to All zones. This means that the query is only sent to the target zone if it originated
from any configured zone or the Local Zone.
