Finally you can specify individual protocol ports or an entire range of protocol ports to be blocked for the Source or Destination. Type the Start Port number in either the Source or Destination row. If there is no port specified in the Start Port column, the filter rule will be ignored. Use the <, >, = or ≠ in the pull down menu to specify the port or range of ports to be filtered. Use the following guide to define the port or port range:
<: specifies the port numbers less than and equal to the Start Port number
>: specifies the port numbers greater than and equal to the Start Port number
=: sets the port number equal to the Start Port if there is no End Port specified; if an End Port number is specified, this defines a range of ports to filter. The range is defined as the port numbers between the Start Port and End Port, including the Start and End Port numbers.
≠: the port number does not equal the Start Port if there is no End Port specified; if an End Port number is specified, this defines a range of ports not to filter. The range is defined as the port numbers between the Start Port and End Port, including the Start and End Port numbers.
Connection Type
Connection Type (PPPoE/ PPPoA/ RFC 1483) Window
The connection method used by the Router for the ADSL connection to the ISPs network is PPP over Ethernet, ATM, or Router with RFC 1483. If changes are made with the connection type, click on save changes in the left column and the click save configuration to store the new configurations.
To change the connection method, select from the pull down menu in the Encapsulation Protocol under Connection Type. Make the selection and click OK.
