Configure a basic firewall allow rule

Symptom: The new web server WEB1 is unreachable from the office LAN. FW1 currently denies everything.

  • Allow only TCP 80 from 192.168.10.0/24 to 172.16.0.10.
  • SSH (TCP 22) from the LAN must stay blocked.
  • Rules are evaluated top-down; first match wins.

Success checks

  • Hidden until resolved
  • TCP/22 from the LAN still denied
  • ICMP from the LAN not opened
Evidence: 0 diagnostic commands · 0 config changes

Finish unlocks when every check passes in the simulator.
