Services

Services Access is used to help secure the system by allowing or denying which service will be available for
the LAN or the WAN ports. The LAN port is enabled for FTP, HTTP and ICMP, all other parameters can be
enabled by checking or disabled by unchecking the parameter. Depending on your network confi guration, you
may or may not want to have some of these parameters enabled or disabled.

One parameter, on the WAN side, that should be disabled is ICMP, which allows other devices to locate
your system right over the Internet. If only the WAN port is connected, and the LAN port and Wireless port is
disabled, you will need to enable “http” or you will not be able to connect to your system. However, if your LAN
port is connected or the Wireless is enabled, and the system is connected to the Internet, you may want to
uncheck all of the WAN parameters.
