AX4300 Outbound Firewall

Is there any way to set outbound rules either per MAC or per local LAN IP? I want to prevent my HP printer from constantly phoning home. I do not want to set a global rule for all attached devices, nor do I want to list every URL I want to block. I want to set a rule to block WAN traffic on the printer, but allow it to freely communicate on the LAN.

 

Thanks in advance for your help!

    Thank you very much! On my tablet, I did not see the IP entry at the bottom of the configuration page, and thought it was a default global filter.

  • just block its Internel access

    Go to Advanced -> Security -> Block Services. Use printer's IP address and ports 1 - 65535, Protocol TCP/UDP
