You can specify 8 rules for each direction: inbound or outbound. For
each rule, you can define the following:
Source IP address
Source port
Destination IP address
Destination port
Protocol: TCP or UDP or both.
Use Rule#
For source or destination IP address, you can define a single IP address
(4.3.2.1) or a range of IP addresses (4.3.2.1-4.3.2.254). An empty
implies all IP addresses.
For source or destination port, you can define a single port (80) or a
range of ports (1000-1999). Add prefix "T" or "U" to specify TCP or UDP
protocol. For example, T80, U53, U2000-2999, No prefix indicates both
TCP and UDP are defined. An empty implies all port addresses. Packet
Filter can work with Scheduling Rules, and give user more flexibility on
Access control. For Detail, please refer to Scheduling Rule. Each rule
can be enabled or disabled individually.

Security Settings > URL Blocking
URL Blocking will block LAN computers to connect to pre-defined Websites.
The major difference between “Domain filter” and “URL Blocking” is Domain
filter require user to input suffix (like .com or .org, etc), while URL Blocking
require user to input a keyword only. In other words, Domain filter can block
specific website, while URL Blocking can block hundreds of websites by simply a
keyword.
URL Blocking Enable: Check if you want to enable URL Blocking.
URL: If any part of the Website's URL matches the pre-defined word, the
connection will be blocked.
For example, you can use pre-defined word "sex" to block all websites if their
URLs contain pre-defined word "sex".
Enable: Check to enable each rule.
