Now we can compile the policy of the firewall "guardian" and generate the iptables script. To do so, use toolbar button located right above the panel that shows policy and NAT rules. This button compiles rules of the firewall that is opened at the moment. Compiler processes Policy, NAT and Routing rules even though the panel shows only one kind of rules at a time. Another button with the same picture is located in the main toolbar under the main menu bar compiles all firewall objects defined in the object tree. Of course there is no difference if you only have one firewall object.

A new dialog appears that allows you to choose which firewalls you want to compile. The program keeps track of the changes and automatically selects firewalls that require recompile because some object they depend on has changed recently. Obviously this is only useful if you have several firewalls in the object tree. Since the checkbox next to the "guardian" firewall is already checked, click Next to proceed.
