Chapter 6

Firewall Protection and

Content Filtering

This chapter describes how to use the content filtering features of the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g

Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 to protect your network. These features can be found by

clicking on the Content Filtering heading in the Main Menu of the browser interface.

Firewall Protection and Content Filtering Overview

The ProSafe Wireless 802.11g

Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2 provides you with Web

content filtering options, plus browsing activity reporting and instant alerts via e-mail. Parents and

network administrators can establish restricted access policies based on time-of-day, Web

addresses, and Web address keywords. You can also block Internet access by applications and

services, such as chat or games.

A firewall is a special category of router that protects one network (the “trusted” network, such as

your LAN) from another (the “untrusted” network, such as the Internet), while allowing

communication between the two. A firewall incorporates the functions of a NAT (Network

Address Translation) router, while adding features for dealing with a hacker intrusion or attack,

and for controlling the types of traffic that can flow between the two networks. Unlike simple

Internet sharing NAT routers, a firewall uses a process called stateful packet inspection to protect

your network from attacks and intrusions. NAT performs a very limited stateful inspection in that

it considers whether the incoming packet is in response to an outgoing request, but true Stateful

Packet Inspection goes far beyond NAT.

To configure these features of your router, click on the subheadings under the Content Filtering

heading in the Main Menu of the browser interface. The subheadings are described below:

Using the Block Sites Menu to Screen Content
