Description
Denial of service (DoS) protection protects your LAN against
DOS attacks. Generally, please enable the port scanning and DOS
protection function
If enabled, the router responds to ping commands from the
Internet. However, like the DMZ server, enabling this function can
bring about security risks. Generally, please disable this function.
NAT filtering determines the way that the router deals with
incoming traffic.
 Secured: This option provides a secured firewall to protect
PCs on LAN from attacks from the Internet, but it may not
allow some Internet games, point-to-point applications, or
multimedia applications to work.
 Open: This option provides a less secure firewall that allows
almost all Internet applications to work.
