Configuring the Firewall

The 6400-S can act as a firewall. A firewall restricts and controls the traffic between networks, typically between a corporate network and the Internet. If an external firewall is used, the firewall features can be set to pass or block traffic depending on whether the 6400-S is placed in series or in parallel with the external firewall.

To configure the firewall, you can:

•Configure basic settings.

•Configure advanced settings

•Enable or disable the firewall.

Configuring the firewall basic settings

The basic settings are under Basic LAN (Subscriber) and WAN (Provider)

Firewall Settings on the Firewall configuration page.
