More about Following describes the three levels of firewall protection
available for the gateway:
• Very High – all incoming/outgoing traffic over the
WAN interface is blocked and the home network is
isolated from the Internet.
• High – all user configured port-forwarding rules are
disabled. No user or application can remove port-
forwarding rules. HTTP UI smart port-forwarding is
disabled. As a result, Internet applications that
require user configured port-forwarding rules will
not
be available.
This mode is appropriate for home users who just
want to access the Internet from their client PCs and
do not plan to run any special server software in their
home network.
• Normal (default) – Internal processes or modules
such as the Universal Plug and Play Internet
Gateway Device (UPnP IGD) have permission to
dynamically auto-configure port-forward rules in their
respective domains to provide ease of use. HTTP UI
smart port-forwarding is enabled. As a result, Internet
applications that require user configured port-
forwarding rules are available.
