WER-401 Wireless SOHO Firewall Gateway
1.3.4 Security
The WER-401 wireless SOHO Firewall gateway is equipped with several features designed to maintain
security, as described in this section.
Password Security
PAP and CHAP support (RFC 1334 plus major vendor variations) if required in login script.
Computers Hidden By NAT
Network address translation (NAT) opens a temporary path to the Internet for requests originating
from the local network. Requests originating from outside the LAN are discarded, preventing
users outside the LAN from finding and directly accessing the computers on the LAN.
Port Forwarding With NAT
Although NAT prevents Internet locations from directly accessing the computers on the LAN, the
wireless SOHO Firewall gateway allows you to direct incoming traffic to specific computers
based on the service port number of the incoming request, or to one designated “DMZ” host
computer.
Encryption Of The Wireless Link
For security against eavesdropping of the wireless signal, the wireless SOHO Firewall gateway
supports IEEE 802.11b standard 64-bit (sometimes referred to as 40-bit) and 128-bit Wired
Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption with Shared Key authentication.
MAC Address Filter Of The Wireless Access
For security against illegal access to the internal wireless network, the wireless SOHO Firewall
gateway supports MAC address filter on the assigned accessible computers in wireless LAN.
1.3.5 Firewall
Access Control (Application Services Management)
Block selected application services, such as ICQ, MSN messenger, on-line games, and so on.
DoS (Denial Of Service) Prevention
Protect the devices in the LAN/WLAN from hacker attacks.
Real Time Alert
While services are to access, or hacker attempt to attack, a real time alert via email will be sent
to the assigned administrator.
Schedule
The WER-401 allows the user to specify the day and time to blocking.
