Assigning client privileges is a way for you to control what
kind of Internet service each of the computers on your
home network can use. For example, you may not want
your children’s computer to have access to the Internet
during a period of time in which you cannot monitor its
use.
When you assign client privileges, you can instruct the
gateway to block Internet access to any computer on your
home network. You can also limit other Internet services,
such as Mail, Telnet, and File Transfer Protocol (FTP).
