accesstoyourPC.
When you maintain a constant connection to the
Internet or have a server in place, in particular,
you need to understand the risk of unauthorized
access and utilize security measures. The product
is equipped with a firewall function as a security
measure but new unauthorized access methods
and loopholes (security holes) are constantly
being discovered and thus no completely infallible
preventionmethodexists.We would like you to
understand that an Internet connection always
includes risk and thus strongly recommend that
you constantly obtain the latest information
and implement security measures as your own
responsibility.
Concerning billing
When the product is used with a measured-rate
line service (for example: the 3G/LTE mobile
phonenetwork)pleaseensurethatyouthoroughly
understand the auto-outgoing call function prior
to use. Whenever the product is connected to the
InternetoraL ANitmonitorsallthedatasentbythe
softwareonyourPC(forexample:e-mailsoftware
or Web browser) and the addresses of the data
being transferred via the LAN. The inclusion of
anyotheraddressthanfromthe LANcan result
in auto-outgoing calls to the line taking place in
accordance with the preset configurations.
If an incorrect conguration is set or you
forget to disconnect the line the software or
equipment may send periodic packets which
can then result in unexpected communication
charges and/or provider connection fees.
Please ensure to check the communication
record and verify whether any unintended
communications have taken place. In addition,
we strongly recommend that you periodically visit
theYamahaNetworkDeviceswebsite(http://w ww.
yamaha.com/products/en/network/) to obtain
the latest information on the configurations and
revisions of the product.
Unexpected communication charges may
occur when you:
• Startusingtheproduct;
• Changeanyproviderconnectionsettingsofthe
product;
• InstallnewsoftwareonyourPC;
• ConnecttothenetworkwithanewPC,network
equipment,orperipheralequipment;
• Updatethefirmwareoftheproduct;or
• Perform any different operations than usual
or sense a difference in the communication
response.
NOTE
• After canceling/changing your provider contract
please ensure to delete or reconfigure the connection
configuration of the product. Failure to observe
this could result in unexpected charges from your
telephone carrier or provider.
• Unexpected communication charges could occur
according to the status (change in access point,
maintenance,error,etc.)oftheproviderside.Please
ensure to pay constant attention to any notifications
you receive from your provider.
Control of the cumulative access
period of the product
When the product is connected to a measured-
ratelineservice(forexample:the3G/LTEmobile
phone network) outgoing restrictions can be set
that are based on accumulative send/receive
data and the cumulative connection period. This
function is based on accumulative send/receive
data and cumulative connection period calculated
by the product and will not necessarily correspond
to the different billing calculation methods used
due to factors such as service discounts and
communication period calculation methods that
are unique to the provider concerned.
The outgoing restriction function may not therefore
alwaysworkasintendedinactualuse.Ifgreater
accuracy is required you will need to conduct
tests over a certain period of time to check for any
discrepancies.

What the product enables you to do
This product is a Gigabit Ethernet firewall that
is suitable for use in small and medium-sized
enterprise networks.
Transparent mode rewall function
With the transparentmodefirewall function, you
can improve security easily even in an environment
where its network configuration cannot be changed
often. The product can be installed without making
changes to the existing network configuration,
allowing you to add the firewall function without
stopping the operation.
Security advice function
The security advice function consists of three
functions: diagnosis, monitoring, and reporting
functions.
The “diagnosis function” checks for vulnerable
configurations before the operation is started.
The “monitoring function” monitors for intrusion
and attack attempts by attackers during operation.
You can see the network status intuitively by
viewing traffic and how errors occur with the
“reporting function“.
URL lter function
WhenallorpartsofaURLisregisteredaskeywords,
the URLfilter function can limit accesstoURLs
containing strings that match any of the keywords.
Fur thermore,thefiltercandenyaccessfromcertain
hostsornetworkswhensourceIPaddressesare

accessoverHTTPSwhentheproductrunsasa
proxyserver.
This allows you to limit Web access from network
users in your organization easily and appropriately.
DHCP terminal authentication function
When terminals are configured as allowed terminals
(registered terminals) or not-allowed terminals
(unregistered terminals), the function can check
if the terminals are allowed to access or not and
control which network each terminal can access.
Eachterminalcanbeconfiguredtohavedifferent
access rights. Forexample,registered terminals
can be configured to allow access to all networks in
andoutsideofthecompany,whereasunregistered
terminals can be configured to limit access to
specific segments in the company.
Policy-based ltering settings
A hierarchical definition of policies in security
settings makes it easy to understand what the
policies are intended for and easy to manage them.
You can create a rough rule and then go into details
gradually.
Getting information on and limiting use of le
sharing software
The product supports detecting and blocking traffic
fromthefilesharingsoftware“Winny”and“Share”.
WhenIntrusionDetectionSystemofthefirewallis
