Description
The type of IP Firewall protections that are in
effect on the interface (public, private, or DMZ):
A public interface connects to the Internet
(IPoA interfaces are typically public). Packets
received on a public interface are subject to the
most restrictive set of firewall protections defined
in the software.
A private interface connects to your LAN,
such as the Ethernet interface. Packets received
on a private interface are subject to a less
restrictive set of protections, because they
originate within the network.
The term DMZ (de-militarized zone), in
Internet networking terms, refers to computers that
are available for both public and in-network
accesses (such as a company's public Web
server). Packets incoming on a DMZ interface—
whether from a LAN or external source— are
subject to a level of protection that is in between
those for public and private interfaces.
The IP address and network mask you want to
assign to the interface.
A green or red ball will display to indicate that the
interface is currently up or down, respectively. You
cannot manually enable or disable the interface; a
down interface may indicate a problem with the
DSL connection.
