When you enable the Port Filtering function, you can specify a single port
or port ranges in current filter table. If you select ACCEPT for the IP
forwarding default policy, once the source port of outgoing packets match
the port definition or within the port ranges in the table, the firewall will
block those packets form LAN to WAN.
