Flexible network integration
The modem provides a direct connection for one computer via its Ethernet port.
Alternatively, add a LAN router to integrate other network devices such as mul-
tiple computers, network printers or dLAN adapters.
1.3 Firewall and virus scanner
The dsl
+
1100 LAN is supplied with the Norman Internet Control software. Nor-
man Internet Control is a firewall and anti-virus program that monitors your PC
for malicious software, also referred to as malware. The most common types of
malware are viruses, worms, and trojans. For the sake of simplicity, we often use
the term virus as a collective description.
Norman Internet Control can detect and remove known and unknown viruses
from hard disks, floppy disks, e-mail attachments, etc. Norman Internet Control
checks files when they are accessed, and possible viruses are removed automat-
ically. If Norman Internet Control is unable to clean an infected file, you will
receive a warning and instructions on how to proceed.
