Abstract
Method and apparatus for multimedia content filtering are described herein. In one embodiment, an example of a network access device, in response to multimedia content transmitted from a source over a first network and destined to a destination over a second network, opens the multimedia content within the network access device interfacing the first and second networks. A content rating operation is performed on the opened multimedia content to determine whether the multimedia content should be transmitted to the destination over the second network. Other methods and apparatuses are also described.
