6.2 Access control
Introduction
Access control allows you to create access schedules for Internet access.
By default, all devices that are connected to your local network have permanent access to the Internet without any
restriction. Access control allows you to limit a device’s access to the Internet to specific times and days.
Warning
Make sure that the persons using these devices are aware of the time schedule, to avoid the loss of data due to unexpected
service interruption.
