FiOS Router User Manual 1. 4 Getting to Know the FiOS Router This section contains a quick description of the FiOS Router's lights (LEDs), ports, etc. The FiOS Router has several indicator lights on its front panel, a sticker on its bottom panel, and a series of ports and switches on its rear panel. [. . . ] Unless the FiOS Router is configured to block requests of this type from this computer, the firewall allows this request to pass out onto the Internet. When the website is returned from the web server, the firewall will associate it with this session and allow it to pass, regardless of whether HTTP access from the Internet to the local network is blocked or permitted. Note that it is the origin of the request, not subsequent responses to this request, which determines whether a session can be established or not. 6. 2a General Screen The "General" screen is used to configure the FiOS Router's basic firewall settings. 104 © 2010 Verizon. All Rights Reserved. FiOS Router User Manual The FiOS Router features three pre-defined firewall security levels: Maximum, Typical, and Minimum. The table below summarizes the behavior of the FiOS Router for each of the three security levels. Security Level Internet requests (incoming traffic) Blocked - No access to local network from Internet, except as configured in the Port Forwarding, DMZ host, and Remote Access screens. Blocked - No access to local network from Internet, except as configured in the Port Forwarding, DMZ host, and Remote Access screens. Unrestricted - Permits full access from Internet to local network; all connection attempts are permitted. Local network requests (outgoing traffic) Limited - Only commonly used services, such as web browsing and email, are permitted. Maximum Security Typical Security Unrestricted - All services are permitted, except as configured in the Access Control screen. Minimum Security Unrestricted - All services are permitted, except as configured in the Access Control screen. These services include Telnet, FTP, HTTP, HTTPS, DNS, IMAP, POP3 and SMTP. Note: Some applications (such as some Internet messengers and peer-to-peer client applications) tend to use these ports if they cannot connect with their own default ports. If the rule will only be active at certain times, select User Defined and click Add. Then, add a schedule rule (for more details about schedule rules, see the "Advanced Settings" chapter of this manual). The Access Control screen will display a summary of the new access control rule. Note: To block a service not included in the list, select User Defined from the Protocol drop-down menu. The service will then be automatically added to the top section of the "Add Access Control Rule" screen, and will be selectable. An access control can be disabled and the service made available without having to remove the service from the Access Control table. This may be useful to make the service available temporarily, with the expectation that the restriction will be reinstated later. To temporarily disable an access control, clear the check box next to the service name. 108 © 2010 Verizon. All Rights Reserved. FiOS Router User Manual To reinstate the restriction at a later time, select the check box next to the service name. To remove an access restriction from the Access Control table, click Remove for the service. The service will be removed from the Access Control table. 6. 4 Port Forwarding Activating "Port Forwarding" allows the network to be exposed to the Internet in certain limited and controlled ways, enabling some applications to work from the local network (game, voice, and chat applications, for example), as well as allowing Internet access to servers in the local network. [. . . ] Note that class statistics will only be available after defining at least one class (otherwise the screen will not present any information). A. 2g Class Identifier To create a class identifier, click Quality of Service in the Advanced screen, then click Class Identifier. The "Class Identifier" screen appears.
