  • Page 26: Advanced > Filters > Ip Filters

    ADVANCED > FILTERS > IP FILTERS Filters Filters are used to deny or allow LAN computers from accessing the Internet. The DI-604UP can be setup to deny internal computers by their IP or MAC addresses. The DI-604UP can also block users from accessing restricted web sites.
  • Page 27: Advanced > Filters > Mac Filters

    ADVANCED > FILTERS > MAC FILTERS Use MAC Filters to allow or deny LAN computers by their MAC addresses from accessing the Internet. You can either manually add a MAC address or select the MAC address from the list of clients that are currently connected to the Broadband Router.
  • Page 28: Advanced > Parental Control > Url Blocking

    ADVANCED > Parental Control > URL BLOCKING URL Blocking is used to deny LAN computers from accessing specific web sites by its URL. A URL is a specially formatted text string that defines a location on the Internet. If any part of the URL contains the blocked word, the site will not be accessible and the web page will not display.
  • Page 29: Advanced > Parental Control > Domain Blocking

    ADVANCED > Parental Control > DOMAIN BLOCKING Domain Blocking is used to allow or deny LAN computers from accessing specific domains on the Internet. Domain blocking will deny all requests to a specific domain such as http and ftp. It can also allow computers to access specific sites and deny all other sites.
  • Page 30: Advanced >Firewall

    ADVANCED >FIREWALL Firewall Rules is an advance feature used to deny or allow traffic from passing through the Broadband Router. It works in the same way as IP Filters with additional settings.
