Port Filtering

Port Filtering blocks outgoing Internet traffic. When enabled,
only traffic from selected applications can access the
Internet. Traffic is identified by port number.

Note: DNS should always be enabled when using Port

Filtering. Without DNS, it is not possible to convert a
Domain name (e.g. www.msn.com) to an IP address.
DNS is used by E-mail, FTP and many other protocols as
well as by Web browsers.

Enable Port Filtering

Enable Port Filtering: Click or touch the checkbox to enable Port

Filtering.

When the featured is enabled only traffic from selected

applications from the Allowed Applications list are allowed access

to the internet.

When the featured is disabled all traffic is allowed to access to the

internet.

Allowed Applications

Click or touch applications you wish to give access to the
internet while the Port Filtering feature is enabled. All other
applications will be blocked.

Custom Applications

Define your own Allowed Applications. Define and enable
additional applications.

Application Name: Enter a name for the application you are

defining.

Port Range: Define the ports used by the application. These ports

refer to outgoing traffic.

For a single port, enter the port number in both the Start Port
and End Port fields.

For a port range, enter the beginning of the range in the Start
Port
field and the end of the range in the End Port field.

Up to 5 ports or port ranges can be defined. Use as many rows
as necessary; unused rows can be left blank.

(TCP, UDP, or both) used by that port range.
