Changing IPS Protection Scope

You can configure IPS for a gateway to inspect the traffic from the external to internal network only. Change the IPS protection scope to protect only the internal network. IPS does not run scans on traffic from the internal to the external network.

To change the IPS Protection Scope:

1. From the navigation tree in the IPS tab, click Enforcing Gateways.

   The Enforcing Gateways window opens.

2. Double-click the gateway.

   The IPS page of the gateway window opens.

3. From the Protection Scope section, click Protect internal hosts only.
4. Click OK.
5. Install the policy on the gateway.
