Firewall

Use the Firewall menu to configure the router to deny or allow specific internal users from accessing the Internet. You can also configure the router to deny or allow specific Internet users from accessing the internal servers. You can set up different packet filters for different users on the internal (LAN) side or external (WAN) side based on their IP addresses or their network Port number.

Firewall When this feature is enabled, the router’s NAT firewall feature is enabled.

DoS Protection When this feature is enabled, the router blocks DoS (Denial of Service) attacks. A DoS attack does not attempt to steal data or damage your PCs, but overloads your Internet connection so you can not use it.

Block WAN Request When this feature is enabled, the router filters out anonymous requests from the WAN.

Remote Management This feature allows you to use an http or https port to remotely manage the router. To enable this feature, select Enable and enter the port number in the Port field, then configure the HTTPS and Remote IP address settings that appear below.
