Introduction
This article provides basic information and an overall insight on creating rules in cloud firewall.
Accessing Firewall
In order to create a rule in the firewall that was purchased, interworks.cloud will send an email with IP, user and password to end consumer in order to access it and adjust routing accordingly.
Upon "hitting" the IP provided from interworks.cloud the user is greeted from the login screen shown below.
Once connection to the administration portal of the Cloud Firewall is established, one can manage the Firewall according to the ongoing security requirements by going to "Firewall" and then "Rules"

Creating rules
Upon entering "Rules" tab from main tab "Firewall", one can create rules for his firewall accordingly.
Managing which IP can access which server, which port, if he is able to access with Remote Desktop and so on.
Rule prioritization
Once rules are made to the firewall the only thing left to do in order for them to be in effect is to hit Save/Update and they are done.
Some rules however might be much more important than others and thus priority to them must be set in order to work in the most proper and efficient way.
In order to prioritize one rule from the other the only thing that must be done is to drag and drop the mentioned rules in the ascending/descending rule list.
Firewall rules functions
There are a few actions possible in the Rules tab like edit, copy, disable and delete.
The easiest and best way to create and adjust rules is that if they are somewhat similar to each other, one can copy a rule and adjust the values in it like IP and port and its done.
Hit Save/Update and it's done!
Conclusion
Following this guide lets the reader create and manage rules in the firewall that was purchased, it's easy and straight forward for a user with somewhat moderate knowledge.
