Introducing the Prestige Firewall
This chapter shows you how to get started with the Prestige firewall.
10.1 Remote Management and the Firewall
When SMT menu 24.11 is configured to allow management (see the Remote Management chapter) and the
firewall is enabled:
The firewall blocks remote management from the WAN unless you configure a firewall rule to
allow it.
The firewall allows remote management from the LAN.
10.2 Access Methods
The web configurator is, by far, the most comprehensive firewall configuration tool your Prestige has to
offer. For this reason, it is recommended that you configure your firewall using the web configurator, see the
following chapters for instructions. SMT screens allow you to activate the firewall and view firewall logs.
10.3 Using Prestige SMT Menus
From the main menu enter 21 to go to Menu 21 - Filter Set and Firewall Configuration to display the
screen shown next.
