Advanced_Inbound Filter
The Inbound Filter option is an advanced method of controlling data received from the Internet. With
this feature you can configure inbound data filtering rules that control data based on IP Address.
Inbound Filters can be used for limiting access to a server on your network to a system or group of
systems. Filter rules can be used with Virtual Server, Gaming, or Remote Administration features.
Each filter can be used for several functions; for example a "Game Clan" filter might allow all of the
members of a particular gaming group to play several different games for which gaming entries have
been created. At the same time an "Admin" filter might only allows systems from your office network
to access the WAN admin pages and an FTP server you use at home. If you add an IP address to a
filter, the change is effected in all of the places where the filter is used.
