Advanced > Filters > Domain Blocking
Domain Blocking is used to allow or deny LAN (Local Area Network) 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.
FiltersDomain Blocking-
Select the filter you wish to use; in this case, Domain Blocking
was chosen.
Disabled-
Select Disabled to disable Domain Blocking.
Allow-
Allows users to access all domains except Blocked Domains.
Denies users access to all domains except
Permitted Domains.
Deny-
Permitted
Domains-
Enter the Permitted Domains in this field.
Blocked Domains- Enter the Blocked Domains in this field.

Using the Configuration Menu (continued)
Advanced > Firewall
Firewall Rules is an advanced feature used to deny or allow traffic from passing
through the DI-524. It works in the same way as IP Filters with additional settings.
You can create more detailed access rules for the DI-524. When virtual services are
created and enabled, it will also display in Firewall Rules. Firewall Rules contain all
network firewall rules pertaining to IP (Internet Protocol).
In the Firewall Rules List at the bottom of the screen, the priorities of the rules are
from top (highest priority) to bottom (lowest priority.)
Note:
The DI-524 MAC Address filtering rules have precedence over the Firewall Rules.
Firewall Rules-
Enable or disable the Firewall.
Name-
Enter the name.
Action-
Allow or Deny.
Source-
Enter the IP Address range.
Destination-
Enter the IP Address range, the Protocol,
and the Port Range.
Schedule-
Select Always or enter the Time Range.
27
Using the Configuration Menu (continued)
Advanced > DMZ
If you have a client PC that cannot run Internet applications properly from behind the
DI-524, then you can set the client up for unrestricted Internet access. It allows a
computer to be exposed to the Internet. This feature is useful for gaming purposes.
Enter the IP address of the internal computer that will be the DMZ host. Adding a
client to the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) may expose your local network to a variety of
security risks, so only use this option as a last resort.
DMZ-
Enable or Disable the DMZ. The DMZ (Demilitarized Zone)
allows a single computer to be exposed to the internet. By
default the DMZ is disabled.
IP Address-
Enter the IP Address of the computer to be in the DMZ.

Advanced > Performance
Wireless
PerformanceDisplayed in this window are the Wireless
Performance features for the Access
Point portion of the
DI-524.
Beacon Interval-
Beacons are packets sent by an Access Point to synchronize a
wireless network. Specify a value. 100 is the default setting and
is recommended.
RTS Threshold-
This value should remain at its default setting of 2432. If inconsistent data flow is a problem, only a minor modification should be
made.
Fragmentation-
The fragmentation threshold, which is specified in bytes, determines whether packets will be fragmented. Packets exceeding
the 2346 byte setting will be fragmented before transmission.
2346 is the default setting.
DTIM interval-
(Delivery Traffic Indication Message) 3 is the default setting. A
DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for
listening to broadcast and multicast messages.
Preamble Type-
Select Short or Long Preamble. The Preamble defines the
length of the CRC block (Cyclic Redundancy Check is a common technique for detecting data transmission errors) for communication between the wireless router and the roaming wireless network adapters. Auto is the default setting. Note: High
network traffic areas should use the shorter preamble type.

Using the Configuration Menu (continued)
Tools> Admin
At this page, the DI-524 administrator can change the system password. There are two
accounts that can access the Broadband Router’s Web-Management interface. They
are admin and user. Admin has read/write access while user has read-only access. User
can only view the settings but cannot make any changes.
Administrator-
admin is the Administrator login name.
Password-
Enter the password and enter again to confirm.
User-
user is the User login name.
Password-
Enter the password and enter again to confirm.
Remote Management- Remote management allows the DI-524 to be configured from
the Internet by a web browser. A username and password is still required to access the
Web-Management interface. In general, only a member of your network can browse the
built-in web pages to perform Administrator tasks. This feature enables you to perform
Administrator tasks from the remote (Internet) host.
IP Address- The Internet IP address of the computer that has access to the Broadband
Router. If you input an asterisk (*) into this field, then any computer will be able to access
the Router. Putting an asterisk (*) into this field would present a security risk and is not
recommended.
Port- The port number used to access the Broadband Router.
Example- http://x.x.x.x:8080 where x.x.x.x is the WAN IP address of the Broadband
Router and 8080 is the port used for the Web-Mangement interface.

You can upgrade the firmware of the Router here. Make sure the firmware you want to
use is on the local hard drive of the computer. Click on Browse to browse the local hard
drive and locate the firmware to be used for the update. Please check the D-Link support
site for firmware updates at http://support.dlink.com. You can download firmware upgrades to your hard drive from the D-Link support site.
Firmware Upgrade- Click on the link in this screen to find out if there is an updated
firmware; if so, download the new firmware to your hard drive.

Ping Test-
The Ping Test is used to
send Ping packets to test if
a computer is on the
Internet. Enter the IP Address that you wish to Ping,
and click Ping.
Restart
Device-
Click Reboot to restart the
DI-524.
Block
WAN
Ping-
If you choose to block WAN
Ping, the WAN IP Address
of the DI-524 will not respond
to pings. Blocking the Ping
may provide some extra security from hackers.
Discard Ping from
WAN sideClick Enabled to block the
WAN ping.
UPNP-
To use the Universal Plug and Play feature click on Enabled. UPNP
provides compatibility with networking equipment, software and peripherals of the over 400 vendors that cooperate in the Plug and Play forum.
Gaming
Mode-
Gaming mode allows a form of pass-through for certain Internet Games.
If you are using Xbox, Playstation2 or a PC, make sure you are using
the latest firmware and Gaming Mode is enabled. To utilize Gaming
Mode, click Enabled. If you are not using a Gaming application, it is
recommended that you Disable Gaming Mode.
Dynamic
DNSVPN
Pass
Through-
Dynamic Domain Name System is a method of keeping a domain name
linked to a changing IP Address. This is a useful feature since many
computers do not use a static IP address.
The DI-524 supports VPN (Virtual Private Network) pass-through
for both PPTP (Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol) and IPSec
(IP Security). Once VPN pass-through is enabled, there is no
need to open up virtual services. Multiple VPN connections can
be made through the DI-524. This is useful when you have many
VPN clients on the LAN network.
PPTP- select Enabled or Disabled
IPSec- select Enabled or Disabled
