The user may disable an access control and the service made available without having to remove the service from the Access Control table. This may be useful to make the service available only temporarily, with the expectation that the restric- tion will be reinstated later.
•To temporarily disable an access control clear the check box next to the net- work computer/device.
•To reinstate the restriction at a later time select the check box next to the network computer/device.
•To remove an access restriction from the Access Control table click the Remove button for the service. The service will be removed from the Access Control table.
☞Note: When Web Filtering is enabled, HTTP services cannot be blocked by access control.
Enable Application
Activating “Enable Application” (also known as port forwarding) allows the net- work to be exposed to the Internet in certain limited and controlled ways, enabling some applications to work from the local network (game, voice, and chat applica- tions, for example), as well as allowing Internet access to servers in the network. To set this up on a networked device, locate the device in the My Network column, then click Enable Applications. The “Port Forwarding” screen appears.
