    The 802.1p header includes a 3-bit prioritization field, which allows packets to be grouped into eight levels of priority. MP-20x maps these eight levels to three main priorities: high, medium and low. By default, values six and seven are mapped to high priority, which may be assigned to network-critical traffic.

  • Page 178: General Security Level Settings

    The firewall regulates the flow of data between the home network and the Internet. Both incoming and outgoing data are inspected and then either accepted (allowed to pass through MP-20x) or rejected (barred from passing through MP-20x) according to a flexible and configurable set of rules. These rules are designed to prevent unwanted intrusions from the outside, while allowing home users access to the Internet services that they require.

    For example, when you point your Web browser to a Web page on the Internet, a request is sent out to the Internet for this page. When the request reaches MP-20x, the firewall identifies the request type and origin--HTTP and a specific PC in your home network, in this case.
