IP Filtering
IP filtering allows you to define which local computers will be denied access to the SBG6580 WAN. You
can configure IP address filters to block Internet traffic to specific network devices on your home
network by entering the starting and ending IP address ranges.
Note: You only have to enter the LSB (Least-significant byte) of the IP address; the upper bytes of the IP
address are set automatically from the SBG6580 Web Manager’s IP address.
