Blocking Access to Internet Services
The WNR2000v2 router allows you to block the use of certain Internet services by computers on
your network. This is called service blocking or port filtering. Services are functions performed by
server computers at the request of client computers. For example, Web servers serve Web pages,
time servers serve time and date information, and game hosts serve data about other players’
moves. When a computer on your network sends a request for service to a server computer on the
Internet, the requested service is identified by a service or port number. This number appears as the
destination port number in the transmitted IP packets. For example, a packet that is sent with
destination port number 80 is an HTTP (Web server) request.
To block access to Internet services:
1.
Select
Block Services
under Content Filtering in the main menu. The Block Services screen
displays.
2.
Enable service blocking by selecting either
Per Schedule
or
Always
, and then click
Apply
.
To block by schedule, be sure to specify a time period in the Schedule screen. For information
about scheduling, see
“Scheduling Blocking” on page 3-5
.

3.
Specify a service for blocking by clicking
Add
. The Block Services Setup screen displays.
4.
From the
Service Type
list, select the application or service to be allowed or blocked. The list
already displays several common services, but you are not limited to these choices. To add any
additional services or applications that do not already appear, select
User Defined
. To define a
service, first you must determine which port number or range of numbers is used by the
application. The service port numbers for many common protocols are defined by the Internet
Engineering Task Force (IETF) and published in RFC1700, “Assigned Numbers.” Service
numbers for other applications are typically chosen from the range 1024 to 65535 by the
authors of the application. You can often determine port number information by contacting the
publisher of the application, by asking user groups or newsgroups, or by searching.
–
Enter the starting port and ending port numbers. If the application uses a single port
number, enter that number in both fields.
–
If you know that the application uses either TCP or UDP, select the appropriate protocol. If
you are not sure, select
Both
.
5.
Select the radio button for the IP address configuration you want to block, and then enter the
IP addresses in the appropriate fields.
