Security Level

High

High security level only allows basic Internet functionality. Only Mail, News,

 

Web, FTP, and IPSEC are allowed. All other traffic is prohibited.

Medium

Factory Default = MEDIUM. Like High security, Medium security only allows

 

basic Internet functionality by default. However, Medium security allows

 

customization through NAT configuration so that you can enable the traffic

 

that you want to pass.

Low

The Low security setting will allow all traffic except for known attacks. With

 

Low security, Verizon One is visible to other computers on the Internet.

None

Firewall is disabled (All traffic is passed).

Custom

Custom is an advanced configuration option that allows you to edit the

 

firewall configuration directly. Note: only the most advanced users should try

 

this.

Remote Logging

Enable

Factory Default = Disabled. If Enabled, Verizon One will send firewall

 

logs to a syslog server.

Remote IP

The IP address of the syslog server machine to which the diagnostics logs

Address

are to be sent.
