12.3 Firewall Configuration

High

High security level only allows basic Internet functionality. Only Mail, News, Web,
FTP, and IPSEC are allowed. All other traffic is prohibited.

Factory Default = Low
The Low security setting will allow all traffic except for known attacks. With Low
security, VersaLink is visible to other computers on the Internet.

Firewall is disabled. (All traffic is passed)

Custom is an advanced configuration option that allows you to edit the firewall
configuration directly. NOTE: only the most advanced users should try this.
