Controlling Access by IP Address
By default, all IP addresses are granted access to DMZ Gateway. You can grant access to only one specific IP address or a range of IP addresses, or deny access to one specific address or a range of addresses. You can define up to 100 IP address masks.

For example, if you want to allow only 192.168.174.159 and block every other IP address, click Denied access, click Add, then type 192.168.174.159 in the IP mask box. This will deny access to all IP addresses except 192.168.174.159. |
