5.3 Blocking Network Protocols

The NXC's firewall allows you to control which protocols are allowed on your
wireless network. If the NXC is connected to an upstream Internet access device,
then incoming traffic off the WAN should be filtered by that device's firewall
feature. However traffic coming into the NXC from wireless clients is not filtered
until you configure its own firewall first.
