Figure 1 – Filter Settings (Packets Defined by TCP/IP)
Note: The Block and Pass screens displays the same fields, except that one enables the
Block IP Filter Function and the other enables the Pass IP Filter Function. Both of them
change when you select
User from the Packets Defined by drop-down list box (the
default is
Packets Defined by TCP/IP).
The Block and Pass screens allow you to define whether or not users have permission
to access the Internet. Choose Block or Pass by deciding which one will be more
efficient in terms of the amount of input. For example, if most users will have access to
the Internet, then use the Block screen to list the users who do not have access to the
Internet (there will be fewer users to block).
Block Tab
The Block function filters by blocking packets from going out through the WAN port or
coming
in through the LAN port. To enable the Block IP filter function, select Enable
Block IP Filter Function.
Pass Tab
The Pass function filters by defining which packets can go into your WAN port or come
on to your LAN. To enable the Pass IP filter function, click the Pass tab and select
Enable Pass IP Filter Function.
