Firewall

Application

You can set up a firewall for the primary network interface of the

control. It can be configured so that incoming network traffic is

blocked and/or a message is displayed depending on the sender

and the service. However, the firewall cannot be started for the

second network interface of the control if it is active as DHCP

server.
Once the firewall has been activated, a symbol appears at the

lower right in the taskbar. The symbol changes depending on the

safety level that the firewall was activated with, and informs about

the level of the safety settings:

Icon

Meaning

No firewall protection provided although

it was activated in the configuration. This

can happen, for example, if PC names were

used in the configuration for which there are

no equivalent IP addresses as yet.
Firewall active with medium safety level.

Firewall active with high safety level. (All

services except for the SSH are blocked)

Have the standard settings checked by your network

specialist and change them if necessary.
The settings in the additional tab

SSH settings are in

preparation for future enhancements and currently

have no function.
