4.4.5 Firewall

MH-1000 includes a full Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) firewall for controlling Internet access from your

LAN, and preventing attacks from hackers. Your router also acts as a "natural" Internet firewall when using

Network Address Translation (NAT), as all PCs on your LAN will use private IP addresses that cannot be

directly accessed from the Internet. Please see the WAN configuration section for more details.

You can find three items under the Firewall section: Packet Filter, URL Filter, and Block WAN Request.
