Defining New Application Profiles 37
CHAPTER 5: Configuring Firewall Settings
Defining New Application Profiles
An application profile includes protocol and port information that allow your system’s firewall to
pass through application-specific data. You can define an application profile that is not included in
the Application List. This feature is typically used if the application for which you would like to pass
through data to a given computer is new or has been recently updated to a new version.
To define a new application profile:
1. Open a Web browser and enter http://home, http://gateway.2Wire.net, or
http://192.168.1.254 to access the gateway user interface.
2. Click on the Home page; the Firewall Status page opens.
