The FIREWALL SET-UP MENU contains options used to view and maintain the IP firewall settings for this device. The
P1700 firewalls are set on a per interface basis, so the set up of the LAN and WAN firewalls is identical. The direction of
traffic is specified from the perspective of the P1700, so incoming traffic is from the specified interface to the P1700,
outgoing traffic is from the P1700 to the specified interface.
1 – LAN Firewall Set-up
The LAN Firewall Set-up option directs you to the LAN Firewall Set-Up Menu, where the IP Firewall parameters for IP
traffic to and/or from Local Area Network(s) may be set.
2 - WAN Firewall Set-up
The WAN Firewall Set-up option directs you to the WAN Firewall Set-Up Menu, where the IP Firewall parameters for IP
traffic to and/or from individual remotes site on Wide Area Networks may be set.
3 - Block Source IP Spoofing
When the Block Source IP Spoofing option is enabled, all of the traffic external to this LAN that uses a source IP
address the same as the local network IP address will be filtered. This prevents devices located on an external network
from attempting to gain access to the local network by using a local IP address as their source address. The P1700 will
discard any IP traffic that is received with a source IP address the same as an IP address located on the LAN.
