Configuring firewall settings

6

1. Select Network Configuration -> Firewall from the Brocade Mobility 7131N-FGR Access Point

menu tree.

2. Refer to the Global Firewall Disable field to enable or disable the Brocade Mobility 7131N-FGR

Access Point firewall.

3. Refer to the Timeout Configuration field to define a timeout interval to terminate IP address

translations.

4. Refer to the Configurable Firewall Filters field to set the following firewall filters:

Disable Firewall

Select the Disable Firewall checkbox to disable all firewall
functions on the Brocade Mobility 7131N-FGR Access Point. This
includes firewall filters, NAT, VP, content filtering, and subnet
access. Disabling the Brocade Mobility 7131N-FGR Access Point
firewall makes the Brocade Mobility 7131N-FGR Access Point
vulnerable to data attacks and is not recommended during normal
operation if using the WAN port.

NAT Timeout

Network Address Translation (NAT) converts an IP address in one
network to a different IP address or set of IP addresses in a
different network. Set a NAT Timeout interval (in minutes) the
Brocade Mobility 7131N-FGR Access Point uses to terminate the
IP address translation process if no translation activity is detected
after the specified interval.
