Network Restrictions Payload (Android)

A Network Restrictions payload allows you to configure firewall rules for Samsung SAFE devices through Avalanche. By setting restrictions and allowances, you prevent or allow traffic to specific addresses, ports, and rules. The payload sends information directly to the Samsung SAFE device's IP tables.

These filtering rules only apply to the native browser on your device. Other installed browsers are unaffected.

Network values should be provided in the following formats:

•IP Address: 100.1.1.0-100.1.1.10

•Port: 8080-8085

•Hostname: server.wavelink.com

Ranges and wildcard characters are allowed. Wildcard domain names are only allowed with the URL Filtering option.

Allow/Deny IP configuration	Allows the device to send, receive, or block traffic from a specific network location. The rule can be specified by IP address, port number, host name, and domain.
Redirect rule	Allows the device to redirect traffic to another destination, such as a proxy server. Ranges and wildcards are allowed for Host Target and Port Target, but not for IP Proxy or Port Proxy.
Redirect exception rule	Allows the device to provide exceptions to redirect rules based on IP addresses and port numbers. These rules take precedence over any redirect rules.
URL Filtering	Prevents the device from accessing specific URLs through its default Web browser. This list is a URL black list, indicating websites not approved for access by displaying a security policy restriction message when an unapproved URL is accessed.
