Access Filters
This screen lets you control the types of information allowed into your LAN. For
example, to prevent the use of Real Audio on the LAN, you can block its protocol here
or block all Internet access. Most standard protocols are predefined or you can define
custom filters. There are 5 security groups that you can define so you can have
different levels of access for different computers.
Security Groups
: By default, all computers are part of the "Everyone" group and have
No Restrictions on Internet use. If you wish to define filters, first select the group
from the drop down menu, then enter the filters for that group below. If you have
previously made an entry to this screen you must first select it from the drop down
menu and then click “
Update Fields Below
” to access it's settings.
NOTE: You must BIND local hosts to the group they are in on the
Host IP & Group
screen.
Note: Always click "Save" after each group setting!
