The firewall also masks common ports that are frequently used to attack
networks� These ports appear to be "stealth" meaning that for all intents
and purposes, they do not exist to a would-be hacker� You can turn the
firewall function off if needed; however, it is recommended that you leave
the firewall enabled� Disabling the firewall protection will not leave your
network completely vulnerable to hacker attacks, but it is recommended
that you leave the firewall enabled�
