Configuring Firewall

The F5D6231-4 is equipped with a firewall that will protect your network from a
wide array of common hacker attacks including Ping of Death (PoD) and Denial
of Service (DoS) attacks. Some Internet applications may not work well with the
firewall feature enabled, however, this is highly unlikely.
You can turn the firewall function off if it is interfering with an application's
function. Turning off the firewall protection will not leave your network
completely vulnerable to hacker attacks, but it is recommended that you turn
the firewall on whenever possible.
This Gateway Router keeps a log of all activity within the router such as
computers logging in and out and any attempts from the Internet to access the
router.
