1.3.2 HomeSafe Parental Control Gateway
You can control LAN user Internet access by having an administrator configure parental control
on the HomeSafe.
The parent (administrator) must create login names and passwords for each person (user) on the
network. Each person must log into the system before they can gain access to the Internet. Each
person’s account will hold the details of their access rights and privileges. The HomeSafe
enforces these access restrictions. In the following diagram, A refers to the HomeSafe and B
refers to a modem.
