IPSEC are allowed. All other traffic is prohibited.
Medium
Factory Default = MEDIUM
Like High security, Medium security only allows basic Internet functionality by default. However,
Medium security allows customization through NAT configuration so that you can enable the traffic
that you want to pass.
Low
The Low security setting will allow all traffic except for known attacks. With Low security, your
Router is visible to other computers on the Internet.

directly. NOTE: only the most advanced users should try this.
