The direct-site command is used to let packets destined for a specified destination IP address to pass. For example, if the command is executed to configure authentication-free access to a SAM server, users can access the IP address of the SAM server without authentication.

The direct-host command is used to let packets from a specified source IP address to pass. For example, if this command is executed to configure authentication-free access to a printer, the printer can be accessed without authentication. Nevertheless, users need to be authenticated but authentication is not required for the printer. If a user needs to be accessed without authentication, the direct-site command needs to be configured for the IP address of the user.
