      Tip
      Tip
      Trend Micro recommends typing the NIC card manufacturer because NIC descriptions typically start with the manufacturer’s name. For example, if you typed "Intel", all Intel-manufactured NICs will satisfy the criteria. If you typed a particular NIC model, such as "Intel(R) Pro/100", only NIC descriptions that start with "Intel(R) Pro/100" will satisfy the criteria.
    • Client connection status
  7. Select whether to grant users the privilege to change the firewall security level or edit a configurable list of exceptions to allow specified types of traffic.
