 ## Overview
-The firewall filter is used to block queries that match a set of rules. It can be used to prevent harmful queries into the database or to limit the access to the database based on a more defined set of rules compared to the traditional GRANT-based rights management.

 ## Configuration
 
-The firewall filter only requires a minimal set of configurations in the MaxScale.cnf file. The actual rules of the firewall filter are located in a separate text file. The following is an example of a firewall filter configuration in the MaxScale.cnf file.

+Rules always define a blocking action so the basic mode for the database firewall filter is to allow all queries that do not match a given set of rules. Rules are identified by their name and have a mandatory part and optional parts.
 
 The first step of defining a rule is to start with the keyword `rule` which identifies this line of text as a rule. The second token is identified as the name of the rule. After that the mandatory token `deny` is required to mark the start of the actual rule definition.
 
 ### Mandatory rule parameters
 
-The firewall filter's rules expect a single mandatory parameter for a rule. You can define multiple rules to cover situations where you would like to apply multiple mandatory rules to a query.
