4.5.10 Firewall

Overview

The

Overview

page summarizes the overall security policy configured on your

SpeedTouch™.

Configure

The

Configure

page allows you to select the security level of the SpeedTouch™.

Select one of following security levels:

±

Block All

: to protect your network from all attempts of incoming (from

untrusted site) connection requests and to perform checks on outgoing (from

trusted site) connections. This level is meant to prevent incoming malicious

traffic.

±

Standard

: to protect your network from all incoming (from untrusted site)

connection requests while permitting safe outgoing connections. This is the

default.

±

Disabled

: to allow all incoming and outgoing traffic. This does not mean the

complete SpeedTouch™ firewall is disabled. It means all traffic coming in on one

interface and going out on another is allowed, but access to the embedded

services of the SpeedTouch™ (as telnet, web interface,...) is only allowed for

clients residing on the LAN side, so the SpeedTouch™ itself stays protected.

±

High

:

Use this Security Level to block all outgoing connections except well known

applications (DNS, HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, TELNET, IMAP, POP) and block all

incoming connections. Game & Application sharing is not allowed by the

firewall.
