Manage Firewall, Web, and NAT ALG Security

The built-in firewall of the cable data gateway supports multiple features, all of which are
enabled by default. You can disable some or all of these firewall features. As an option, you
can also enable web features, which are disabled by default. The Application Level Gateway
(ALG) is enabled by default to optimize Network Address Translation (NAT). You can disable
some or all of the ALG NAT traversal filters.
