Domain Blocking
The firewall includes the ability to block access to specific domain based on string
matches. For example, if the URL of Taiwan Yahoo web site is “tw.yahoo.com” and you
enter “yahoo.com”, the firewall will block all the DNS queries with “yahoo.com” string. So
the Host will be blocked to access all the URLs belong to “yahoo.com” domain. That
means you can protect your computer, your house, your office and anything else that
uses DNS from being able to service domains that you don’t want to load.
