Network security
This chapter shows how to set up security defence for your local area network.
Setting up the access rights to WL-AM604g
To protect your wired and wireless LAN, we recommend setting up access protection
so as to prevent WL-AM604g from being viewed or modified by unauthenticated users.
Service restriction
WL-AM604g provides a Service Control List (SCL) that can enable or disable services
which are used to access the router configuration interface. You can choose allowing
HTTP, ICMP from WAN, or allowing HTTP from LAN. After the configuration is
completed, click Save/Apply to activate the settings.
IP address restriction
To protect the router from being accessed by unauthenticated user in your LAN, you
can restrict the access right to the hosts with certain IP addresses. Click Management
-> Access Control -> IP Addresses to set up the IP address for the authenticated
network supervisors.
Before setting up the IP address restriction, ensure that the addresses of
authenticated hosts are static.
