7.5  Applying a Filter and Factory Defaults 
This section shows you where to apply the filter(s) after you design it (them). Sets of factory default filter 
rules have been configured in menu 21 to prevent NetBIOS traffic from triggering calls and block incoming 
telnet, FTP and HTTP connections. 
7.5.1 LAN traffic 
You seldom need to filter LAN traffic; however, the filter sets may be useful to block certain packets, reduce 
traffic and prevent security breaches. Go to menu 3.1 (shown below) and enter the number(s) of the filter 
set(s) that you want to apply as appropriate. You can choose up to four filter sets (from twelve) by entering 
their numbers separated by commas, e.g., 3, 4, 6, 11. Input filter sets filter incoming traffic to the Prestige 
and Output filter sets filter outgoing traffic from the Prestige. A factory default set, NetBIOS_LAN, is 
inserted in protocol filters field under Input Filter Sets in menu 3.1 to block NetBIOS traffic to the Prestige 
from the LAN.
