Parameters Description
IP address
filter enable
Check this box to enable IP Address Filtering.
Filter Method
The filter can be set in either “Allow” mode or “Block” mode.
1. “Allow” mode will refuse access to all IP addresses except the ones
listed below.
2. “Block” mode will accept all incoming access except the IP
addresses listed below.
Make sure you include the Netmask in your consideration.
IP Address
The IP address you wish to allow or block. Please note that the actual
range is modified by the Netmask.
Netmask
Using Netmask allows you to set filtering for a whole range of IP address
at once, without the need to enter all of them individually. If you are not
sure about the function of netmask, then you should use
255.255.255.255, and it will affect only a single IP address per line of
entry, or use 255.255.255.0 to use the same setting for all IP addresses
starting with the same three numbers. .
Enable
For each entry, you must check this box for it to be effective. For an entry
that you no longer need but does not wish to delete, you can uncheck it,
and the system will remember it for future use. If a new entry that has
never been used before does not have Enable checked, then it will not
be stored in memory.
Apply
Click this to use the current displayed info to do IP Address filtering. If
you setup correctly, it will change into a grayed out “Success” in a few
seconds.
Reset Click this button to re-enter the parameters.
Click the [Apply] button to confirm the settings or click the [Reset] button to re-enter the
parameters.
