Configuring the Firewall

The firewall on your router shields your network from the Internet by examining network
packets (units of data sent on a network) before they are forwarded to your router. The
Networking – Firewall screen allows you to further customize this feature by adding packet
filters that will restrict specific data from entering your router.
Instructions for adding a packet filter follow the screen description below.
To access the screen, click Networking > Firewall.
