control access to it. Use this screen to set the security level of the firewall on the Zyxel Device. Firewall
rules are grouped based on the direction of travel of packets. A higher firewall level means more
restrictions on the Internet activities you can perform. Click Security > Firewall > General to display the
following screen. Use the slider to select the level of firewall protection.

Note: LAN to WAN is your access to all Internet services. WAN to LAN is the access of other

When the security level is set to High, Telnet, FTP, HTTP, HTTPS, DNS, IMAP, POP3, SMTP,
and/or IPv6 ICMPv6 (Ping) traffic from the LAN are still allowed.
