Firewall Rules is an advanced feature used to deny or allow trafﬁc from passing

through the DI-524. It works in the same way as IP Filters with additional settings.

You can create more detailed access rules for the DI-524. When virtual services are

created and enabled, it will also display in Firewall Rules. Firewall Rules contain all

network ﬁrewall rules pertaining to IP (Internet Protocol).

In the Firewall Rules List at the bottom of the screen, the priorities of the rules are

from top (highest priority) to bottom (lowest priority.)

Note:

The DI-524 MAC Address ﬁltering rules have precedence over the Firewall Rules.
