Requirements:



Procedure:
In order to ensure that programs like WhatsApp continue to function where the LANCOM router firewall is operated with a deny-all strategy and the LANCOM Content Filter is operated at the same time, you need to configure explicit rules in the LANCOM firewall which allow the applications to communicate on other ports.

In the case of WhatsApp, these are the XMPP ports 5222 and 5223.
1) In LANconfig, open the configuration dialog for the LANCOM router and switch to the menu item Firewall/QoS
->
IPv4 rules
->
Rules.
2) Click on Add and create a new firewall rule which allows communication via the XMPP ports.
