Firewall
15.1  Overview
This chapter shows you how to enable and configure the Device’s security settings. Use the firewall 
to protect your Device and network from attacks by hackers on the Internet and control access to 
it. By default the firewall:
• allows traffic that originates from your LAN computers to go to all other networks. 
• blocks traffic that originates on other networks from going to the LAN. 
The following figure illustrates the default firewall action. User A can initiate an IM (Instant 
Messaging) session from the LAN to the WAN (1). Return traffic for this session is also allowed (2). 
However other traffic initiated from the WAN is blocked (3 and 4).
