Services

Service Objects and Service Groups are configured underObject > Match Objects > Services page.

SonicOS supports an expanded IP protocol support to allow users to create service objects, service groups, and access rules based on these custom service protocols. For a list of pre-defined protocols, see Predefined IP Protocols for Custom Service Objects. To add specific IP protocols required for your network, refer to Adding Custom IP Type Services.

Services are used by the SonicWall security appliance to configure access rules for allowing or denying traffic to the network. The SonicWall security appliance includes predefined default service objects and default service groups. You can edit, but not delete, default service objects and default service groups. You can create custom service objects and custom service groups to meet your specific business requirements.

The View drop-down list at the top of the page allows you to control the display of default and custom service objects and groups. Select All type to display both custom and default entries, select Custom to display only custom, or select Default to display only default service entries.
