FIREWALL CONFIGURATION
MAC/IP/PORT FILTERING
MAC/IP/Port filtering restricts connection parameters to limit the risk of intrusion and
defends against a wide array of common hacker attacks. MAC/IP/Port filtering allows
the unit to permit, deny or proxy traffic through its MAC addresses, IP addresses a nd
ports. The 3G Mobile Wireless Router allows you define a sequential list of permit or
deny filtering rules (up to 32). This device tests ingress packets against the filter rules
one by one. A packet will be accepted as soon as it matches a permit rule, or dropped
as soon as it matches a deny rule. If no rules match, the packet is either accepted or
dropped depending on the default policy setting.
◆ MAC/IP/Port Filtering — Enables or disables MAC/IP/Port Filtering.
(Default: Disable)
◆ Default Policy — When MAC/IP/Port Filtering is enabled, the default policy will be
enabled. If you set the default policy to ―Dropped‖, all incoming packets that don’t match
the rules will be dropped. If the policy is set to "Accepted," all incoming pac kets
that don't match the rules are accepted. (Default: Dropped)
◆ MAC Address — Specifies the MAC address to block or allow traffic from.

traffic from.
◆ Source IP Address — Specifies the source IP address to block or allow traffic from.
