Outbound filter applies on all outbound packets. However, Inbound filter applies on
packets that destined to Virtual Servers or DMZ host only. You can select one of the two
filtering policies:
¾ Allow all to pass except those match the specified rules
¾ Deny all to pass except those match the specified rules
You can specify 8 rules for each direction: inbound or outbound. For each rule, you can
define the following:
¾ Source IP address
¾ Source port address
¾ Destination IP address
¾ Destination port address
¾ Protocol: TCP or UDP or both.
¾ Use Rule#
For source or destination IP address, you can define a single IP address (4.3.2.1) or a
range of IP addresses (4.3.2.1-4.3.2.254). An empty implies all IP addresses.
For source or destination port, you can define a single port (80) or a range of ports
(1000-1999). Add prefix "T" or "U" to specify TCP or UDP protocol. For example: T80, U53,
U2000-2999. No prefix indicates both TCP and UDP are defined. An empty implies all port
addresses. Packet Filter can work with Scheduling Rules, and give user more flexibility on
Access control. For Detail, please refer to Scheduling Rule. Each rule can be enabled or
disabled individually.
z Inbound Filter:
To enable Inbound Packet Filter click the check box next to Enable in the Inbound
Packet Filter field.

URL Blocking will block LAN computers to connect to pre-defined Websites.
The major difference between “Domain filter” and “URL Blocking” is Domain filter require
user to input suffix (like .com or .org, etc), while URL Blocking require user to input a
keyword only. In other words, Domain filter can block specific website, while URL Blocking
can block hundreds of websites by simply a keyword.

¾ Example:
In this scenario, there are three clients listed in the Control Table. Clients 1 and 2 are
wireless, and client 3 is wired.
The "MAC Address Control" function is enabled.
"Connection control" is enabled, and all of the wired and wireless clients not listed in the
"Control table" are "allowed" to connect to this device.
"Association control" is enabled, and all of the wireless clients not listed in the "Control
table" are "denied" to associate to the wireless LAN.
Clients 1 and 3 have fixed IP addresses either from the DHCP server of this device or
manually assigned:
ID 1 - "00-12-34-56-78-90" --> 192.168.12.100
ID 3 - "00-98-76-54-32-10" --> 192.168.12.101
Client 2 will obtain its IP address from the IP Address pool specified in the "DHCP
Server" page or can use a manually assigned static IP address.
If, for example, client 3 tries to use an IP address different from the address listed in the
Control table (192.168.12.101), it will be denied to connect to this device.
Clients 2 and 3 and other wired clients with a MAC address unspecified in the Control
table are all allowed to connect to this device. But client 1 is denied to connect to this
device.

3.3.4.5 Routing
Routing Tables allow you to determine which physical interface address to use for
outgoing IP data grams. If you have more than one routers and subnets, you will need to
enable routing table to allow packets to find proper routing path and allow different
subnets to communicate with each other.
Routing Table settings are settings used to setup the functions of static.

Routing Information Protocol (RIP) will exchange information about destinations for
computing routes throughout the network. Please select RIPv2 only if you have different
subnet in your network.
Otherwise, please select RIPv1 if you need this protocol.
z Static Routing:
For static routing, you can specify up to 8 routing rules. You can enter the destination IP
address, subnet mask, gateway, and hop for each routing rule, and then enable or disable
the rule by checking or unchecking the Enable checkbox.
3. Making Configuration
65 AirLive WN-220R User’s Manual

Configuration on NAT Router
Destination SubnetMask Gateway Hop Enabled

192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.123.103 1 ˇ
So if, for example, the client3 wanted to send an IP data gram to 192.168.0.2, it would use
the above table to determine that it had to go via 192.168.123.103 (a gateway), and if it
sends Packets to 192.168.1.11 will go via 192.168.123.216
