of three levels) are readily available through Netopia's embedded web server interface.
BreakWater Basic Firewall's three settings are:
• ClearSailing
ClearSailing, BreakWater's default setting, supports both inbound and outbound traffic.
It is the only basic firewall setting that fully interoperates with all other Netopia software
