User's Manual

Filters block specific internal users from accessing the Internet. From the
Filters tab, as shown in Figure 5-15, you can set up a filter through an IP
address or a network port number.
• Setting Up Filters
To set up a filter using IP addresses, enter the range of IP addresses you
wish to filter in the IP address fields. Users who have filtered IP addresses
will not be able to access the Internet at all. If you only want to filter one
IP address instead of a range of IP addresses, enter the same value into both
fields. For instance, if you wish to filter the PC with the IP address of
192.168.1.5, enter 5 into both fields on one line: 192.168.1.5 ~ 192.168.1.5.
Click the Apply button when you’re done.

Important: Filtering is an Advanced Function. No changes
should be made to this tab without a thorough understanding
of networking concepts.
