IM / P2P Blocking

IM, short for Instant Messaging, is required to use client program software that allows users to communicate, exchanging text message, with other IM users, in real time, over the Internet. A P2P application, known as Peer-to-Peer, is a group of computer users who share files to specific groups of people across the Internet. Both Instant Messaging and Peer-to-Peer applications make communication faster and easier, but your network can become increasingly insecure at the same time. This router’s IM and P2P blocking system helps users to restrict LAN computers from access to the commonly used IM, Yahoo and MSN, and P2P, BitTorrent and eDonkey, applications over the Internet.
