NetBIOS Filter Commands

The following describes the NetBIOS packet filter commands.

Introduction

NetBIOS (Network Basic Input/Output System) are TCP or UDP broadcast packets that enable a computer
to connect to and communicate with a LAN.

For some dial-up services such as PPPoE or PPTP, NetBIOS packets cause unwanted calls.

You can configure NetBIOS filters to:

• Block or forward NetBIOS packets from being sent from the LAN to the WAN.

• Block or forward NetBIOS packets from being sent from the WAN to the LAN.

• Allow or deny NetBIOS packets to be sent through VPN connections.

• Block or forward NetBIOS packets from initiating calls.
