Rules are categorized as either server rules or client rules. Server rules are the rules that you create in Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager and that are downloaded to the Symantec Endpoint Protection client. Client rules are the rules that the user creates on the client.
Table: User control level and rule status describes the relationship between the client's user control level and the user's interaction with the firewall rules.
