Configuring the Firewall
A firewall protects the devices on your network from the outside
world. The RF-HTN104 provides a firewall function. The firewall
works by analyzing a set of rules that dictate whether the firewall
should accept or drop packet requests on specific ports.
To use the firewall function on your router:
1. Check the Enable Firewall Function box.
2. Choose a default policy. The default policy will dictate what
the firewall does for packet requests for which there is no
defined rule. You may choose to either
Accept or Drop
packet requests.
3. Click the Add New Rule button. A new window appears
prompting you to enter details of the rule.
4. Check the
Active
box if you want this new rule to be active
when you have finished configuring it.
5. Type a Description into the Description field.
6. Select a schedule if you have already created one or select Always to
have the rule apply all the time. Additionally, you can click Add
Schedule if you want to add a schedule now.
7. Choose from the drop down menu whether you want the rule to
Accept or Drop the packets.
8. Select the Source interface for which this rule is to apply from the
Source Interface
drop down menu. The Source Interface is the
network where the packets originate. If the packet originates locally,
select LAN. If the packets are from a remote network such as the
internet, select WAN.
9. Enter the Source IP in the Source IP Address field. You may enter a
range of IP Addresses by entering the starting address in the first box
and the ending address in the second box.
