IP Filters
IP filtering enables you to block applications and services based on the IP address of a LAN device. You can apply
one or more predefined IP filtering rules to one or more LAN computers. You can view the rules associated with a
predefined filter and add the available rules for a given category. You can also create, edit, or delete your own IP
filter rules.
