Hi,

How will I configure my firewall for Securing IoT devices of my home/Office? What will be extra configuration required?

I know this is a duplicate thread. Now I moved to the correct group.

Hi,

 you can isolate IoT devices to DMZ and create special rules for each direction.

 For example:

 IoT to WAN open Internet access (NAT all ports/services) + DNS, IPS profiles.
 LAN to IoT permit route only HTTP/HTTPS (for most devices is enough) + IPS profile.

For addiditional monitoring you can add Application Control profile in all rules.
