Inbound Filter

When you use the Virtual Server, Port Forwarding, or Remote Administration

features to open specific ports to traffic from the Internet, you could be

increasing the exposure of your LAN to cyber attacks from the Internet. In these

cases, you can use Inbound Filters to limit that exposure by specifying the IP

addresses of internet hosts that you trust to access your LAN through the ports

that you have opened.

Inbound Filters can be used for limiting access to a server on your network to a

system or group of systems. Filter rules can be used with Virtual Server, Gaming,

or Remote Administration features.

°

Name

°

Action:

inbound filter rule on the WAN interface.

°

Remote IP Range:

Specify the remote IP address range and then click in the

check box to enable the range.
