ALG

Application Layer Gateway (ALG) is a software component that manages specific application
protocols such as Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and File Transfer Protocol (FTP). The ALG acts as
an intermediary between the internet and an application server and allows or denies traffic of
certain types to the application server. It does this by intercepting and analyzing the specified
traffic, allocating resources, and defining dynamic policies to allow traffic to pass through.
To access the configuration page, log in to the web UI of the ONT and choose Services > Firewall >
