Firewall Settings
The firewall is a system or group of systems that enforce an access control policy between two
networks. It may also be defined as a mechanism used to protect a trusted network from an
un-trusted network. The WAB-5120 300Mbps 5G Wireless Outdoor PoE Access Point/Bridge has
capabilities of Source IP Filtering, Destination IP Filtering, Source Port Filtering, Destination Port
Filtering, Port Forwarding as well as DMZ. This is available only under Router Mode.
Source IP Filtering: The source IP filtering gives users the ability to restrict certain types of data
packets from your local network to Internet through the WAB-5120 300Mbps 5G Wireless Outdoor PoE
Access Point/Bridge. Use of such filters can be helpful in securing or restricting your local network.
