feature can be used to prevent unknown wireless stations from accessing your
LAN.
•
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 loca-
tion and even the existence of each PC is hidden. From the external viewpoint,
there is no network, only a single device - the ADE-4301/ADW-4301.
•
Firewall.
All incoming data packets are monitored and all incoming server re-
quests 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 ADE-4301/ADW-4301 incorporates protection against DoS attacks.
