Does anyone know if this router can restrict incoming traffic to specific IP addresses. There does not seem to be any information on Cisco's web site any more.

InternetSharing(8) BSD System Manager's Manual InternetSharing(8)
NAME
InternetSharing -- simple NAT/router configuration daemon
SYNOPSIS
InternetSharing -d
DESCRIPTION
InternetSharing is the back-end for the Internet Sharing feature. It is responsible for configuring the network interfaces, the DHCP server
bootpd(8), the network address translation daemon natd(8), and the Internet domain name server named(8). named(8) is run in caching-only
mode and allows the DHCP server to always offer the same DNS server address to the DHCP clients, regardless of the value of the actual DNS
server addresses.
The single command line option -d places additional debugging information to stdout/stderr.
InternetSharing is launched by launchd(8) both at start-up and when the user turns Internet Sharing on in the Sharing preferences pane.
By default, InternetSharing configures the IP addresses for non-AirPort interfaces starting at 192.168.2.1, walking up by one class C network
(subnet mask 255.255.255.0) for each subsequent interface i.e. 192.168.3.1, 192.168.4.1, 192.168.5.1, and so on. The AirPort interface by
default is assigned 10.0.2.1.
CONFIGURATION
InternetSharing reads the property list com.apple.nat.plist stored in the /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration.
Details of the com.apple.nat.plist are subject to change and are not completely documented here. The plist is a contract between the Sharing
preferences pane and InternetSharing. Any details provided here are for informational purposes only.
The plist is a dictionary with a single sub-dictionary called NAT containing properties to control which interfaces to use and other set-
tings. It may also have a sub-dictionary called AirPort that is used to configure the AirPort interface when it is put into access point
mode.
One property worth mentioning is SharingNetworkNumberStart. This property controls the behavior of InternetSharing when it configures IP
addresses for the local interfaces. The property is encoded as a string containing the dotted decimal network IP address, assumed to be a
class C network. For example:
<key>SharingNetworkNumberStart</key>
<string>192.168.100.0</string>
If the SharingNetworkNumberStart appears directly in the NAT dictionary, it controls the starting IP address chosen for the non-AirPort
interfaces. If the property appears within the AirPort sub-dictionary, it controls the IP address assigned to the AirPort interface.
The purpose of the property is to allow the user to avoid address collisions with existing NAT'd networks.
