Password - protected Configuration
. Password protection is provided to prevent
unauthorized users from modifying the configuration data and settings.
•
NAT Protection.
An intrinsic side effect of NAT (Network Address Translation)
technology is that by allowing all LAN users to share a single IP address, the location and
even the existence of each PC is hidden. From the external viewpoint, there is no network,
only a single device - the ADSL2/2+ Broadband Router.
•
Firewall.
All incoming data packets are monitored and all incoming server requests are
filtered, thus protecting your network from malicious attacks from external sources.
•
Protection against DoS attacks.
DoS (Denial of Service) attacks can flood your
Internet connection with invalid packets and connection requests, using so much
bandwidth and so many resources that Internet access becomes unavailable. The
ADSL2/2+ Broadband Router incorporates protection against DoS attacks.
