Enable port filtering

Port filtering enables you to select which applications (for example, http, ftp, email

servers) can access the Internet. Used in conjunction with other security measures such

as firewall, port filtering can enhance network security.

To enable port filtering:

1. On the Homepage, log in as Administrator.

2. Click Settings > Router > Port Filtering.

3. Select the Port Filtering Mode:

· Black List (Block list) — Specific applications not allowed to access the Internet

· White List (Allow list) — Specific applications allowed to access the Internet

Note: Only one list at a time can be active, either a Black List or a White List.
