When your Wireless Routing Center operates as a router, the built-in NAT function
provides your LAN with Internet access via the single public IP of the WAN port.
That means all network devices are allowed to access the Internet. Therefore,
network security becomes an important issue and system administrators may need
to build access controls to protect the network.
Filters serve as a basic security measure for your network. When the filter function
is enabled, the Wireless Routing Center inspects all data packets received from the
LAN and determines if packets are allowed to pass through the WAN port. Whether
a packet is allowed to pass through, depends on whether it matches your filter rules
and whether your filter type is Listed Pass or Listed Block.

access the Internet.
