access is permitted only to addresses allowed in the table. It is possible to specify up to eight
remote IP addresses for access/denial. You can specify the following parameters:
Item
Description
Source
IP address the rule applies to. Use IPv4 address in
IPv4 Firewall

and IPv6 address in
IPv6 Firewall Configuration
.
Protocol
Specifies the protocol the rule applies to:
•
all
– The rule applies to all protocols.
•
TCP
– The rule applies to TCP protocol.
•
UDP
– The rule applies to UDP protocol.
•
GRE

•
ICMP/ICMPv6

Target Port(s)
The port numbers range allowing access to the router. Enter the
initial and final port numbers separated by the hyphen mark. One
static port is allowed as well.
Action
Specifies the rule – the type of action the router performs:
•
allow
– The router allows the packets to enter the network.
•
deny
– The router denies the packets from entering the net-
work.
Table 28: Filtering of Incoming Packets
The next section of the configuration form specifies the forwarding policy. If you unmark the
Enabled filtering of forwarded packets
check box, then packets are automatically accepted. If
you activate this function, and a packet is addressed to another network interface, then the
router sends the packet to the FORWARD chain. When the FORWARD chain accepts the
packet and there is a rule for forwarding it, the router sends the packet. If a forwarding rule is
unavailable, then the router drops the packet.
This configuration form also contains a table for specifying the filter rules. It is possible to
create a rule to allow data with the selected protocol by specifying only the protocol, or to create
stricter rules by specifying values for source IP addresses, destination IP addresses, and ports.
