Configuring the Firewall

The firewall on your router shields your network from the Internet by examining network packets (units of data sent on a network) before they are forwarded to your router. The Networking – Firewall screen allows you to further customize this feature by adding packet filters that will restrict specific data from entering your router.

Instructions for adding a packet filter follow the screen description below. To access the screen, click Networking > Firewall.
