Configuring the Firewall

The 6400-S can act as a firewall. A firewall restricts and controls the traffic

between networks, typically between a corporate network and the Internet. If

an external firewall is used, the firewall features can be set to pass or block

traffic depending on whether the 6400-S is placed in series or in parallel with

the external firewall.
To configure the firewall, you can:

• Configure basic settings.

• Configure advanced settings

• Enable or disable the firewall.

Configuring the firewall basic settings

The basic settings are under Basic LAN (Subscriber) and WAN (Provider)

Firewall Settings on the Firewall configuration page.
