Cisco RV110W Firewall Features
You can secure your network by creating and applying rules that the
Cisco RV110W uses to selectively block and allow inbound and outbound Internet
traffic. You then specify how and to what devices the rules apply. To do so, you
must define the following:
• Services or traffic types (examples: web browsing, VoIP, other standard
services and also custom services that you define) that the router should
allow or block.
• Direction for the traffic by specifying the source and destination of traffic;
this is done by specifying the “From Zone” (LAN/WAN/DMZ) and “To Zone”
(LAN/WAN/DMZ).
• Schedules as to when the router should apply rules.
• Keywords (in a domain name or on a URL of a web page) that the router
should allow or block.
