Advanced IP Filtering Page

This page allows you to define which local PCs will be denied access to the SBG901
WAN. You can configure IP address filters to block Internet traffic to specific network
devices on the LAN by entering starting and ending IP address ranges. Note that you
only need to enter the LSB (Least-significant byte) of the IP address; the upper bytes of
the IP address are set automatically from the SBG901 Configuration Manager’s IP
address.

The Enabled option allows you to store filter settings commonly used but not have them
active.
