Chapter 3 Conguration
Parameter Meaning
Log Output Enable to output a log of rewall activity.
Basic Rules Enable to use any of the quick lters. Precongured quick lters
include:
Prohibit NBT and Microsoft-DS Routing
Enabling this blocks communication using these protocols from
the WAN side to the LAN side or from the LAN side to the Internet.
You can congure this with PPPoE if you select [Use PPPoE Client]
or [Use IP Unnumbered] in Method of Acquiring IP address (page
24), or if Easy Setup identied a PPPoE connection during setup.
Reject IDENT Requests
Enabling this option will answer IDENT requests from the Internet
side with corresponding rejection packets. Enable this option if
you experienced slow transfer speeds for network applications
such as mail, ftp or web browsing. If you have congured transfer
of IDENT requests to the LAN side computer in the address
translation settings (DMZ or TCP port 113), then that setting has
higher priority, and overrides this setting.
Block Ping from Internet
If this is enabled, the AirStation will not respond to pings from the
Internet side. You can congure this with PPPoE if you select [Use
PPPoE Client] or [Use IP Unnumbered] in Method of Acquiring IP
address (page 24), or if Easy Setup identied a PPPoE connection
during setup.
