7.4 The firewall wizard
The LANCOM Router incorporates an effective protection of your WLAN when
accessing the Internet by its Stateful Inspection firewall and its firewall filters.
Basic idea of the Stateful Inspection firewall is that only self-initiated data
transfer is considered allowable. All unasked accesses, which were not initi-
ated from the local network, are inadmissible.
The firewall wizard assists you to create new firewall rules quickly and com-
fortably.
Please find further information about the firewall of your LANCOM Router and
about its configuration in the reference manual.
