Client IP Filters
The Router can be configured to restrict access to the Internet,
email, or other network services at specific days and times.
Restriction can be set for a single computer, a range of computers,
or multiple computers.
MAC Address Filtering
The MAC address filter is a powerful security feature that allows
you to specify which computers are allowed on the network. Any
computer attempting to access the network that is not specified in
the filter list will be denied access. When you enable this feature,
you must enter the MAC address of each client on your network to
allow network access to each or copy the MAC address by selecting
the name of the computer from the “DHCP Client List”. To enable
this feature, select “Enable”. Next, click “Apply Changes” to save the
settings.
DMZ
If you have a client PC that cannot run an Internet application
properly from behind the firewall, you can open the client up to
unrestricted two-way Internet access. This may be necessary if the
NAT feature is causing problems with an application such as a game
or video conferencing application. Use this feature on a temporary
basis. The computer in the DMZ is not protected from hacker
attacks. To put a computer in the DMZ, enter the last digits of its
LAN IP address in the “Static IP” field and click “Apply Changes” for
the change to take effect.
If you have only one public (WAN) IP address, then you can leave
the public IP to “0.0.0.0”. If you are using multiple public (WAN) IP
addresses, it is possible to select which public (WAN) IP address the
DMZ host will be directed to. Type in the public (WAN) IP address
you wish the DMZ host to direct to, enter the last two digits of the IP
address of the DMZ host computer, and click “Apply Changes”.
