Internet Access. The Internet Access feature allows all LAN users to share a
single Internet Account, using either the serial port (for analog modem or ISDN
TA) or the WAN port (for ADSL or Cable modems). The built-in firewall pro-
tects your LAN against external attacks.
♦
Advanced Internet Features. The Barricade incorporates a number of ad-
vanced features to add value to your Internet Access:
•
Special Applications allows LAN users to use non-standard applications
such as Video-conferencing, Instant Messaging, and other 2-way Internet
applications.
•
Virtual Servers allows Internet users to access Web, E-Mail, FTP and
other Servers on your LAN, while still sharing the IP Address provided by
your ISP.
•
Filtering functions provide protection for LAN users. You can block high-
risk components such as ActiveX controls. Also, the Site Filter feature al-
lows you to create your own lists of "Allowed" and "Banned" sites. And the
"Log" function can record any attempted accesses which are blocked by the
Site Filter.
