filter setting - A setting made for a service port. A service
port with a filter setting uses filter settings created for library
categories (block, open, or always allow settings) to deter-
mine whether users should be denied or allowed access to
that port.
firewall mode - An R3000 set up in the firewall mode will
filter all requests. If the request is appropriate, the original
packet will pass unchanged. If the request is inappropriate,
the original packet will be blocked from being routed
through.
global administrator - An authorized administrator of the
network who maintains all aspects of the R3000, except for
managing master IP groups, NT and LDAP domains, and
each member’s associated filtering profile. The global
administrator configures the R3000, sets up master IP
groups and NT/LDAP domains, and performs routine main-
tenance on the server.
group administrator - An authorized administrator of the
network who maintains a master IP group or NT/LDAP
domain/group, and sets up and manages members within
the group/domain. This administrator also adds and main-
tains customized library categories for group/domain
members.
group name - The name of a group set up for a domain on
an NT server. For example: “production” or “sales”.
invisible mode - An R3000 set up in the invisible mode will
filter all connections on the Ethernet between client PCs and
the Internet, without stopping each IP packet on the same
Ethernet segment. The unit will only intercept a session if an
inappropriate request was submitted by a client.
LDAP - One of two authentication method protocols used by
the R3000. Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is
a directory service protocol based on entries (Distinguished
Names).
