'''Zone Forwarding:'''
|}


Zone forwarding in network configuration allows traffic to be directed from one zone to another.


=== 2.5 Firewall ===
To ADD new zone,
A firewall is a layer of security between the network and the Internet. Since a router is the main connection from a network to the Internet, the firewall function is merged into this device. Every network should have a firewall to protect its privacy.


[[File:RB44 Firewall Config.png|1024x1024px]]
Click on “Add” in “New Zone Forward:” field.


There are 6 types of setting available under firewall.
''*Refer the image below*''


* General Settings

In contrast to automatic updates, Manual Upgrade lets you take control over which packages or applications you want to upgrade and when.

This can be useful if you need to avoid upgrading certain apps due to compatibility or testing purposes, or if you want to perform updates at a specific time.

Common Actions:

  • Check for Updates: The system will check for available updates for installed apps.
  • Select Updates: You can select which packages to update manually.
  • Upgrade Now: You can start the upgrade process immediately for selected apps.
