The Packet Filters screen (see Figure 14) allows you to block specific users from accessing the Internet and you can also disable specific Internet services. There are three different types of filters that may be applied (MAC Address of the network interface card, IP Address single or range, or TCP/UDP Port). Each filter can be set to filter (drop) or forward (pass) packets. You can program up to 24 total filters.
