    Content Filtering
    This chapter describes how to use content filteri ng s for the gateway. This chapter includes:
    • “Viewing or E-mailing Logs ”
    • “Blocking Keywords, Sites, and Services” on page  3-2
    • “Services” on page  3-4
    • “Port Forwarding” on page  3-5
    Viewing or E-mailing Logs
    Your gateway logs security-related events such as De nial of Service (DoS) attacks, hacker probes, 
    and administrator logins, according  to your settings on this screen. If you have set up content 
    filtering on the Block Sites screen, you can also  log when someone on your network tried to access 
    a blocked site. You can specify which events are  logged and you can send the logs to a Syslog 
    server.
    1. Log in to the gate
     way as described in “Logging In to Your Gateway” on page  1-4 .
    2. In the main menu, under  Content F
     iltering, select Logs. The Logs screen displays.

    3.Click Apply so that your changes take effect.
    4.To e-mail the log now, click E-mail Log.
    To delete all log entries, click Clear Log. To see the most recent entries, click Refresh. 
    Blocking Keywords, Sites, and Services
    The gateway provides a variety of options for blocking Internet based content and communications 
    services. With its content filtering feature, the gateway prevents objectionable content from 
    reaching your PCs. The gateway allows you to control access to Internet content by screening for 
    keywords within Web addresses. It also has the capability to block access to all sites except those 
    that are explicitly allowed. 
    Key content filtering options include:
    • Blocking access from your LAN to Internet locations that contain keywords that your specify.
    • Blocking access to websites that you specify as off-limits.
    • Allowing access to only websites that you specify as allowed.
    Blocking Keywords and Domains
    The gateway allows you to restrict access to Internet content based on functions such as Web 
    address keywords and Web domains. A domain name is the name of a particular website. For 
    example, for the address www.NETGEAR.com, the domain name is NETGEAR.com.
    To block keywords and domains:
    1.Log in to the gateway as described in “Logging In to Your Gateway” on page 1-4.

     the URL www.zzzyyqq.com/xxx.html is blocked.
    • If the keyword  .c
     om is specified, only websites with  other domain suffixes (such as .edu, 
    .org, or .gov) can be viewed.
    • Enter the keyword “ .”
      to block all Internet browsing access.

    • You can use the Web Features to set certain Web-oriented cookies, java scripts, and pop-up 
    windows to be blocked by the firewall. 
    Port Forwarding
    Configuring Port Forwarding to Local Servers
    Using the port forwarding feature, you can allow certain types of incoming traffic to reach servers 
    on your local network. For example, you might make a local Web server, FTP server, or game 
    server visible and available to the Internet.
    Use the Port Forwarding screen to configure the router to forward specific incoming protocols to 
    computers on your local network. In addition to servers for specific applications, you can also 
    specify a default DMZ server to which all other incoming protocols are forwarded. The DMZ 
    server is configured in the WAN Setup screen, as discussed in “
    “Setting Up a Default DMZ 
    Server” on page 5-4.
    Before starting, you need to determine which type of service, application, or game you will 
    provide, and the local IP address of the computer that will provide the service. Be sure the 
    computer’s IP address never changes.
    To configure port forwarding to a local server:
    1.Log in to the gateway as described in “Logging In to Your Gateway” on page 1-4.
    2.Select Port Forwarding under Advanced in the main menu. The Port Forwarding screen 
    displays:

    3.From the  Service list, select the service or game that  you will host on your network. 
    If the service does not appear in th e list, see 
     the following section, “Adding a Custom Rule” on 
    page  3-6 .”
    4. Click  Ad
     d. The service appears in  the list in the screen.
    Adding a Custom Rule
    To define rule that does not appear in the Servi ce list, you must first determine which port number 
    or range of numbers is used by the application.  You can usually determine this information by 
    contacting the publisher of the application or user  groups or newsgroups. When you have the port 
    number information, follow these steps:
    1. In the Port Forwarding screen,  enter the 
     name of the rule in the Add Custom Rules section of 
    the screen. 
    2. In the St
     ar ting  Po rt field, enter the beginning port number. 
    • If the application uses only a single po rt, enter the 
     same port number in the Ending Port 
    field.
    • If the application uses a range of ports, ente r th
     e ending port number of the range in the 
    Ending Port  field.
    3. In the Se
     rvice Type field, select the protocol. If you are unsure, select  TCP/UDP.

    4.In the Local IP Address field, enter the IP address of your local computer that will provide 
    this service.
    5.Click Apply. The service appears in the list.
    Application Example: Making a Local Web Server Public
    If you host a Web server on your local network, you can use port forwarding to allow Web requests 
    from anyone on the Internet to reach your Web server.
    To make a local Web server public:
    1.Assign your Web server either a fixed IP address or a dynamic IP address using DHCP address 
    reservation, as explained in “Using Address Reservation” on page 4-5. In this example, your 
    router will always give your Web server an IP address of 192.168.1.33.
    2. 2. In the Port Forwarding screen, configure the router to forward the HTTP service to the local 
    address of your Web server at 192.168.1.33. HTTP (port 80) is the standard protocol for Web 
    servers.
    3. (Optional) Register a host name with a Dynamic DNS service, and configure your router to use 
    the name as described in ““Configuring Dynamic DNS” on page 5-1.
    To access your Web server from the Internet, a remote user must know the IP address that has been 
    assigned by your ISP. However, if you use a Dynamic DNS service, the remote user can reach your 
    server by a user-friendly Internet name, such as mynetgear.dyndns.org.
