The FRITZ!Box connects computers in your home network with the
Internet. This chapter explains the possibilities presented by using
the FRITZ!Box as an Internet router and how to take advantage of
them.

your own.

Parental Control: Access Profiles for Internet Use
•
Permit web sites with a whitelist:
–
The whitelist is a filter list that should be used when
access should be limited to just a few web sites.
–
Access to web pages entered in the whitelist is per-
mitted.
–
When a whitelist is used, only those web sites includ-
ed in the list can be opened, and no others.
•
Block web sites with a blacklist:
–
The blacklist is a filter list that should be used when
access to most web sites is to be permitted, and the
number of blocked web sites is relatively small.
–
Access to web pages entered in the blacklist is
blocked.
–
If the blacklist is used, no web site can be opened by
entering its IP address. This is also true for web sites
that are not included in the blacklist.
–
For applications that address web sites directly via
the IP address, for instance virus scanner update
software, the relevant IP addresses can be released
for access by entering them in the exception list of
“Permitted IP addresses”.
Internet Access by Network Applications
You can list network applications for which you would like to
block communication with the Internet. For instance, you can
prohibit file sharing programs or online games from commu-
nicating over the Internet.
