Router's Parental Controls Really Block All Internet Traffics? [closed]

I am using Asus 4G-AC53U router.
When I turn ON "Parental Controls" to block a client's Internet access, does the router really block ALL kinds of Internet traffics including system's service (such as OS update checking, license checking, etc.) ?
Or it only block normal user's access, e.g. web browsing, video streaming, etc.?

          Yes it blocks all kinds of internet traffic except direct communication between just the router and device so you can generally still access it's control panel by ip.
