You can then specify the Source for packets to be filtered from the drop-down menu. If the source is selected as LAN, then this rule will apply to packets that are sent from PCs on your LAN to the WAN (Internet). If the source is selected as WAN, then this rule will apply to packets that are sent from PCs on the WAN. If both are selected, then this rule will apply to packets that are sent from PCs on both the WAN and your LAN.

A similar situation applies to the Destination drop-down menu. If the destination is selected as LAN, then this rule will apply to packets that are to be sent to PCs on your LAN. If the destination is selected as WAN, this rule will apply to packets that are to be sent to PCs on the WAN. If Both is selected, then this rule will apply to packets that are to be sent to PCs on both the WAN and your LAN.

Next, you must enter either a single IP address or a range of IP addresses in the IP Range Start and IP Range End fields. Remember that IP addresses are in the form x.x.x.x where x varies from 0 to 255 and that an IP address range must be contiguous.
