8.9 Firewall:

The DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) option provides you with an option to set a single computer on your network outside of the router. If you have a computer that cannot run Internet applications successfully from behind the router, then you can place the computer into the DMZ for unrestricted Internet access.

Note: Putting a computer in the DMZ may expose that computer to a variety of security risks. Use of this option is only recommended as a last resort.

?Enable SPI: When checked, the extra state information will be reported on the Status > Active sessions page.

?Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) also known as dynamic packet filtering helps to prevent cyber attacks by tracking more state per session. It validates that the traffic passing through the session conforms to the protocol.

?Enable DMZ means that computer may expose to a variety of security risks. Use of this option is only recommended as a last resort.

If you have made any changes or deletions, click on Save Settings at the top of the page. If your configuration settings are complete, click Reboot the Device or Click Continue. The router must reboot before new settings will take effect.

8.10 Scheduled AlphaGAP:

AlphaGAP® Technology ensures that access to the connected computer system is disabled by creating a virtual GAP (disconnection) following a pre-determined Internet idle interval (15 minutes). To enable this security option, check the box titled Enable Scheduled AlphaGAP®. Once this option is selected, your Internet connection will automatically disconnect after being idle for 15 consecutive minutes. For more information on AlphaGAP’s® effective protection technique, please see AlphaGAP® in our glossary, or visit our website at www.alphashield.com

To set a specified time to deny or allow access on your network, select your appropriate option from the Allow/Deny all Access During down menu.
