FIREWALL
The firewall is the cornerstone of the security suite for your Gateway.
It has been exclusively tailored to the needs of the residential or office
user and is pre-configured to provide optimum security.
The firewall provides both the security and flexibility home and office
users seek. It provides a managed, professional level of network
security while enabling the safe use of interactive applications, such as
Internet gaming and video conferencing.
Additional features, including surfing restrictions and access control,
can also be configured locally through the user interface or remotely by
a service provider.
