Firewall
You can control access to the PolaRx5 using the receiver
’
s
fi
rewall in the
Firewall
window. By
default, all Ethernet and WiFi ports are open (i.e. those de
fi
ned on the
IP Ports
menu).
I
n the example shown in Figure 6-7, Ethernet ports 2101, 2102 and 2103 are accessible but
only from devices with the
I
P address 84.199.9.148. Similarly, all WiFi ports are open but only
those from
I
P 84.199.9.148.
Please note that the
fi
rewall settings do not apply when connecting to the web interface
using USB.
I
n the case of WiFi,
fi
rewall settings only apply when the receiver is in WiFi client
mode.
