You can switch the entire firewall on or off here. The firewall inspects and counts every single incoming and outgoing packet. Depending on the protocol in question, it temporarily opens the channels that are required by a local station for processing a request. Furthermore individual networks, peers, services or protocols can be preferred, limited or blocked.
