These tries can be logged if I activate the log feature of the router?
(I have nobody here I may expect to do that in the near future but
better to be protected/secured in advance )

BTW, what about a firewall in the router - I mean mainly the fatures of
opening/closing certain IP ports - I didn't see this feature yet in the
docs of my router - is that usually present these days with
hardware/firmware like that? (all the other security/firewall features
like MAC/IP-addresses filtering etc. - these are present - I still to
read about them and activate if needed...)
