Blocking Sites and Keywords
The router provides a variety of options for blocking Internet-based content and
communications services. With its content filtering feature, the router prevents objectionable
content from reaching your PCs. You can control access to Internet content by screening for
keywords within Web addresses. Content filtering options include:
•
Keyword blocking of HTTP traffic.
•
Outbound service blocking. Limits access from your LAN to Internet locations or services
that you specify as off-limits.
•
Denial of service (DoS) protection. Detects and thwarts DoS attacks such as Ping of
Death, SYN flood, LAND attack, and IP spoofing.
•
Blocking unwanted traffic from the Internet to your LAN.
The router allows you to restrict access to Internet content based on Web addresses and
Web address keywords.
