Using the Configuration Menu
Firewall
Firewall Rules is an advanced feature used to deny or allow traffic from passing through
the DI-724U. It works in the same way as IP Filters with additional settings. You can
create more detailed access rules for the DI-724U. Firewall Rules contain all network
firewall rules pertaining to IP (Internet Protocol).
In the Firewall Rules List at the bottom of the screen, the priorities of the rules are from
top (highest priority) to bottom (lowest priority).
Note: The DI-724U MAC Address filtering rules have precedence over the Firewall
Rules.
