Firewalls are network security devices that monitor incoming and outgoing traffic and decide whether to allow or block specific traffic based on a set of security rules.
They establish a barrier between secured internal networks that can be trusted and untrusted outside networks, such as the Internet. Filters need to be configured that determine which packet are allowed to go where.
Firewalls can be hardware, software, or both and are often built into other products.
We use firewalls from Dreytek and TP Link included with their routers.
ESET endpoint security software also includes a firewall capability enabling indiviual devices to be protected.
