DESCRIPTION
Use the drop-down list box to select what the firewall is to do with packets that
match this rule.
Select Drop to silently discard the packets without sending a TCP reset packet or
an ICMP destination-unreachable message to the sender.
Select Reject to deny the packets and send a TCP reset packet (for a TCP packet)
or an ICMP destination-unreachable message (for a UDP packet) to the sender.
Select Permit to allow the passage of the packets.
Note: You also need to configure NAT port forwarding (or full
featured NAT address mapping rules) if you want to allow
computers on the WAN to access devices on the LAN.
Note: You may also need to configure the remote management
settings if you want to allow a WAN computer to manage the
device or restrict management from the LAN.
Click Apply to save your customized settings and exit this screen.
Click Cancel to exit this screen without saving.
