Configuring Client Services
The Wireless Barricade includes a broad range of client services,
including firewall protection, network address translation, virtual
server, connection support for special applications, and restricted
Internet access for specified clients. You can configure these
functions using the Setup Wizard by clicking “Enter” at the bottom
of the Advanced Settings screen, or by selecting specific items
from the menu on the left of the screen.
Firewall Protection
The Wireless Barricade’s firewall can block common hacker
attacks, including IP Spoofing, Land Attack, Ping of Death, IP with
zero length, Smurf Attack, UDP port loopback, Snork Attack, TCP
null scan, and TCP SYN flooding. The firewall does not
significantly affect system performance, so we advise leaving it
enabled to protect your network users.
