    “tw.yahoo.com” and you enter “yahoo.com”, the firewall will block all the DNS 
    queries with “yahoo.com” string. So the Host will be blocked to access all the 
    URLs belong to “yahoo.com” domain. That means you can protect your 
    computer, your house, your office and anything else that uses DNS from 
    being able to service domains that you don’t want to load.

    5.2.7.5. Routing Configuration 
     
    The page enables you to define specific route for your Internet and network 
    datas. 
     
    Most users do not need to define routes. On a typical small home or office 
    LAN, the existing routes that set up the default gateways for your LAN hosts 
    and for the router provide the most appropriate path for all your Internet traffic. 
     
    You may need to define routes if your home setup includes two or more 
    networks or subnets, if you connect to two or more ISP services, or if you 
    connect to a remote corporate LAN. 
      
    						
    							 81
     
     
    Parameter Description 
    Enable  Check to enable the selected route or route to be added.
      
    Destination  The destination can be specified as the IP address of a 
    subnet or a specific host in the subnet. It can also be 
    specified as all zeros to indicate that this route should be 
    used for all destinations for which no other route is 
    defined (this is the route that creates the default 
    gateway). 
      
    Subnet Mask  The network mask of the destination subnet. The default 
    gateway uses a mask of 0.0.0.0. 
      
    Next Hop  The IP address of the next hop through which traffic will 
    flow towards the destination subnet. 
      
    Metric  Defines the number of hops between network nodes that 
    data packets travel. The default value is 0, which means 
    that the subnet is directly one hop away on the local LAN 
    network. 
      
    Interface  The WAN interface to which a static routing subnet is to
