| The filter can be set in either “Allow” mode or “Block” mode. | |
|
|
| 1. “Allow” mode will refuse access to all IP addresses except the | |
| Filter |
| ones listed below. |
|

| addresses listed below. |

|
| Make sure you include the Netmask in your consideration. | |
| IP Address | The IP address you wish to allow or block. Please note that the | ||
| actual range is modified by the Netmask. |
| ||
|
|
|
| |
|
|
| Using Netmask allows you to set filtering for a whole range of IP | |
|
|
| address at once, without the need to enter all of them individually. | |
| Netmask | If you are not sure about the function of netmask, then you should | ||
| use 255.255.255.255, and it will affect only a single IP address per | |||
|
|
| ||
|
|
| line of entry, or use 255.255.255.0 to use the same setting for all | |
|
|
| IP addresses starting with the same three numbers. . | |
|
|
| For each entry, you must check this box for it to be effective. For | |
|
|
| an entry that you no longer need but does not wish to delete, you | |
| Enable | can uncheck it, and the system will remember it for future use. If a | ||
|
|
| new entry that has never been used before does not have Enable | |
|
|
| checked, then it will not be stored in memory. |

|
|
| “Success” in a few seconds. |
