11.5 Stateful Inspection
Stateful inspection means the WR1500 Wireless Router records packet information, such as port

number and source/destination addresses and then allows or denies the response depending on

your fi rewall rules.

The default rules allow LAN-to-WAN traffi c and deny traffi c initiated from WAN-to-LAN.

The previous fi gure shows the WR1500 Wireless Router’s default fi rewall rules in action as well

as demonstrates how stateful inspection works. User A can initiate a Telnet session from within

the LAN and responses to this request are allowed. However other Telnet traffi c initiated from the

WAN is blocked.
