Firewall Features
AC1900, N900, and N450 WiFi Cable Data Gateways
Description
If firewall features are enabled, the cable data gateway performs stateful
packet inspection (SPI) and protects against denial of service (DoS)
attacks. If firewall features are disabled, the cable data gateway does not
perform SPI and does not provide DoS protection.
Note: Best practise is to keep firewall features enabled.
