Service Filtering

The Service Filtering feature lets you give certain users permission to access the V3 from outside the network—that is, over the Internet. If you enable one of the services listed on this page, the V3’s firewall will open up the appropriate port to allow the service to work.

PING from External Network

Disabled by default. Enable it

 

to allow an external user to

 

ping your V3. This can be

 

useful if you need to

 

troubleshoot your unit.

 

 

FTP from External Network*

Disabled by default. Enable it

 

to allow an external user to ftp

 

into your V3. Typically, you

 

would do this if you wanted

 

someone to check the V3’s

 

configuration.

 

 

DNS from External Network

Disabled by default. Enable it

 

to allow your V3 to accept DNS

 

requests from an external

 

source.

 

 

IKE from External Network

Disabled by default. Enable it

 

to allow a VPN (virtual private

 

network) connection to your

 

network.

 

 

RIP from External Network

Disabled by default. Enable it

 

to allow your V3 to receive RIP

 

(Routing Information Protocol)

 

requests from an external

 

source. The Technical

 

Reference Manual contains

 

details about RIP; go to

 

www.zoom.com

 

 

DHCP from External Network

Disabled by default. Enable it

 

to allow your V3 to receive

 

DHCP requests from an

 

external source.
