13.2 Access Control
If you select Firewall Settings in the top navigation menu and then select Access Control in the left submenu, the
following screen appears.
Access Control is used to block specific computers within the local network (or even your entire network) from
accessing certain services on the Internet. For example, one computer can be prohibited from surfing the Internet,
another computer from transferring files using
FTP, and the whole network from receiving incoming E-mail. Access
control defines restrictions on the types of requests that can pass from the local network out to the Internet, and thus
may block traffic flowing in both directions.
To add an Access Control rule, click the New Entry link or, alternatively, you can click the plus icon.
Adding a new entry will allow you to choose a device from the known network devices (For example, your
computers) or enter a MAC address of a new device. Then you must choose the Protocol (or service) to be blocked.
