The screen displays with both the Default Incoming Deny and Default Outgoing Deny checkboxes
selected by default. Consequently, if you enable IP filtering but do not apply any filters that allow IP
traffic, then no IP traffic will be forwarded, as the default deny settings have precedence.

3 Set the Direction as Incoming or Outgoing as required.
4 Apply an Action of Allow or Deny to permit or restrict the rules of this filter in the direction selected.
5 Select Add to apply the filter(s) (and their rules and permissions) to the LAN or WLAN.
6 Click OK add the IP filter to the LAN or WLAN. Navigating away from the screen without clicking
OK results in all changes to the screens being lost.
7 Click Cancel to securely exit the IP Filtering screen without saving your changes.
