Basic Configuration
2.
Mostly Open:
Access is granted by default, and the only clients denied access,
are those explicitly listed in the Deny list, and as exceptions in the Allow list. To
allow access to all clients except 192.255.255.192 and 168.112.112.05, the Allow
and Deny lists would be defined as follows:
• Allow List:
1. ALL EXCEPT 192.255.255.192, 168.112.112.05
• Deny List:
1. 192.255.255.192, 168.112.112.05
Notes:
• When defining a line in the Allow or Deny list that includes several IP
addresses, each individual address is separated by either a space, a comma,
or a comma and a space as shown in Example 2 above.
• Take care when using the "ALL" wild card. When ALL is included in the Allow
list, it should always include an EXCEPT operator in order to allow the unit to
proceed to the Deny list and determine any addresses you wish to deny.
5.9.4. Static Route
The Static Route menu allows you to type in Linux routing commands that will be
automatically executed each time that the unit powers up or reboots. In the Text
Interface, the Static Route menu is accessed via the Network Configuration menu. In
the Web Browser Interface, the Static Route menu is accessed via the flyout menus
under the Network Configuration link.
5.9.5. Domain Name Server
The DNS menu is used to select IP addresses for Domain Name Servers. When web
and network addresses are entered, the Domain Name Server interprets domain
names (e.g., www.wti.com), and translates them into IP addresses. In the Text
Interface, the DNS menu is accessed via the Network Configuration menu. In the
Web Browser Interface, the DNS menu is accessed via the flyout menus under the
Network Configuration link. Note that if you don't define at least one DNS server, then IP
addresses must be used, rather than domain names.
When accessed via the Text Interface, the Domain Name Server menu includes a Ping
Test feature, that allows you to ping the IP addresses for each user-defined domain
name server in order to check that a valid IP address has been entered.
Note:
In order for the Ping Test feature to function, your network and/or firewall
must be configured to allow ping commands.
