   Note

   A corresponding firewall rule is automatically created. Review the rule position on the firewall rule list. Automatically created firewall rules, such as those for email MTA, IPsec connections, and hotspots, are placed at the top of the firewall rule list and are evaluated first. The policies and actions of the rule at the top will apply, which may lead to unplanned outcomes, such as failure in mail delivery or tunnels not being established, when matching criteria for the new and existing rules overlap.
