Remote IP Netmask : the IP subnet mask of the Remote IP Address.
Enable IPX : allows IPX routing over a connection using this profile.
IPX RIP/SAP : enables or disables IPX Routing Information Protocol and
Service Advertising Protocol.
Set as IPX Default Route : specifies whether this connection is used as
the default IPX route if no other route for an IPX packet can be found in
the routing table.
Remote IPX Network Number: the IPX network number of a network
reachable through this connection. If you set this connection as the default
IPX route, this field is not displayed.
Enable Bridging : enables or disables bridging to bridge other protocols,
for example, SNA, Appletalk, and NetBEUI.
Enable Encryption: allows DES encryption. If you select DES
encryption you must enter a DES Encryption key.
Encryption key: the DES encryption key used by other systems to
establish contact with your system. This must be a hexadecimal number
(0-9, a-f) with up to 16 digits, depending upon the strength of encryption
licensed for your site.
Confirm Encryption key: re-enter the DES encryption key to confirm its
correct entry.
Note: For security reasons, encryption options only appear if you are
connected to the Wireless Router over a local LAN and if encryption is enabled
on your system.

Packet Filtering
This section describes the packet filtering feature.
Note: Packet filtering is a sophisticated feature that can substantially impact your
Wireless Router operation. Therefore be sure that you fully understand the description
in this chapter before you start to configure and use this feature, since if you make any
mistakes, it may produce drastic and potentially undesired results.
A Packet Filtering Overview
The Wireless Router already provides you with many different ways to ensure the
security of your data in your local environment. Packet filtering is a security feature
that allows you to selectively pass or throw away data traffic between your local LAN
and the wide area network (e.g., the Internet). Packet
Filtering allows each IP or IPX
packet exiting a router interface to
be examined for a match with a configured set of rules
and an action to be taken depending upon whether the packet statisfies any rule or not.
In the browser manager, a set of rules may be configured over any existing interface
as represented by a WAN profile. To configure a set of rules for packets exiting the
LAN interface (in addition to any WAN interface), you must use the Filtering
commands in the Command Line Interface. If the contents of the packet do not match
