6.10 Configuring Firewall Settings

The access point's firewall is a set of related programs located in the gateway on the WAN side of
the access point. The firewall uses a collection of filters to screen information packets for known
types of system attacks. Some of the access point's filters are continuously enabled, others are
configurable.
Use the access point's
each filter for maximum security. Disable a filter if the corresponding attack does not seem a threat
in order to reduce processor overhead. Use the WLAN Security screens (WEP, Kerberos etc.) as
required for setting user authentication and data encryption parameters.
