IP Filtering

IP filters block specific internal users from accessing the Internet and enable
Virtual Private Network (VPN) sessions. You can set up filters by using IP
addresses or network port numbers (or a range of ports).
Filtered Private IP Range
• To set up a filter using IP addresses, enter the range of IP addresses you wish
to filter in the IP address fields. Users with filtered IP addresses will not be
able to access the Internet at all. If you only want to filter one IP address
instead of a range of IP addresses, enter the same value into both fields. For
instance, if you wish to filter the PC with the IP address of 192.168.1.5, enter
5 into both fields on one line: 192.168.1.5 ~ 192.168.1.5. Click the Apply
button when finished.
