to all IP addresses.

 'Target subnet mask': Target subnet mask which, together with the

ter is to apply to all IP addresses.

 'From target port' and 'To target port' define the port range for the

packets being filtered. If both values are specified as 0, the filter

applies to all target ports.

 'Action': This is used to define how the firewall is to treat a specific

packet. The following are your options:

 'Transmit packet': The packet is allowed through.

 'Reject packet': The packet is discarded without notification.

 'Discard packet': The packet is rejected and the sender is notified

accordingly.

Confirm your settings and return to the list of rules by clicking 'Save'. You can

modify the entry by clicking the source IP address. The two icons to the left

of the entry allow you to copy or delete it.

Clicking the 'Event table' opens a list containing all the logged events that

have been triggered by the rule. To make sure you can accurately trace events

in the log, check that the system time is set correctly in the router. To do so,

go to the router utility start page, then select 'Management (for advanced

users)' and then 'See date and time'.

You can save all of the settings for your MicroLink (dLAN) ISDN Router to a

file on disc simply by selecting 'Management (for advanced users)' and then

'Save configuration as file' on the entry page of the router configuration util

ity. If at a later time your settings are inadvertently changed, you can load the

settings of the saved file into the router by clicking 'Restore configuration

from file'.
