Avast! Firewall + VPN ( SecureLine ) configuration
« on: January 18, 2015, 02:49:26 AM »
Hi guys,

I need help from an ( Avast! ) Firewall expert :)

How can you configure the Avast! Firewall, so that outgoing connections are ONLY allowed thru a VPN ( service ) ?
I think you have to add a rule to "Packetrules" for the particular VPN server, but I have no idea what - and how.
I am ( also ) using the Avast! SecureLine VPN. That doesn't really matter, but it can be used as an example.
Who can help me ?

Cybersecurity is more of an attitude than anything else. Avast Evangelists.

Use NoScript, a limited user account and a virtual machine and be safe(r)!

Hoi Pol :)

Ik begrijp het niet helemaal ?

Het gaat mij om de Avast! Windows Firewall.
