63 2.6 NAT Network Address Translation (NAT) allows multiple users at your local site to access the Internet through a single Public IP Address or multiple Public IP Addresses. NAT provides Firewall protection from hacker attacks and has the flexibility to allow you to map private IP addresses to public IP addresses for key services such as Websites and FTP. Parameters Description Port Forwarding You can have different services (e.g. email, FTP, Web etc.) going to different service servers/clients in your LAN. The Port Forwarding function allows you to redirect a particular range of service port numbers (from the Internet/WAN Ports) to a particular LAN IP address. Virtual Server You can have different services (e.g. email, FTP, Web etc.) going to different service servers/clients in your LAN. The Virtual Server allows you to redirect a particular service port number (from the Internet/WAN Port) to a particular LAN IP address and its service port number. Special Applications Some applications require multiple connections, such as Internet games, video conferencing, Internet telephony and
64 others. In this section you can configure the router to support these types of applications. UPnP Setting It allows to enable or disable UPnP feature here. After you enable the UPnP feature, all client systems that support UPnP, like Windows XP, can discover this router automatically and access the Internet through this router without any configuration. The NAT Traversal function provided by UPnP can let applications that support UPnP smoothly connect to Internet sites without any incompatibility problem due to the NAPT port translation. ALG Setting You can let special applications that require “Application Layer Gateway” to be supported here. Static Routing You can disable NAT function and setup the routing rules manually. Click on one of the above NAT selections and proceed to the manuals relevant sub-section.
65 2.6.1 Port Forwarding The Port Forwarding allows you to redirect a particular range of service port numbers (from the Internet/WAN Ports) to a particular LAN IP address. It helps you to host some servers behind the router NAT firewall. Parameters Description Enable Port Forwarding Enable Port Forwarding Private IP This is the private IP of the server behind the NAT firewall. Note: You need to give your LAN PC clients a fixed/static IP address in order to make port forwarding function working properly. Type This is the protocol type to be forwarded. You can choose to forward “TCP” or “UDP” packets only or select “both” to forward both “TCP” and “UDP” packets. Port Range The range of ports to be forward to the private IP. Comment The description of this setting. Add Port Fill in the Private IP, “Type”, “Port Range” and
66 Forwarding Comment of the setting to be added and then click Add. Then this Port Forwarding setting will be added into the Current Port Forwarding Table below. If you found any typo before adding it and want to correct it, just click Clear and the fields will be cleared. Remove Port Forwarding If you want to remove some Port Forwarding settings from the “Current Port Forwarding Table, select the Port Forwarding settings you want to remove in the table and then click Delete Selected. If you want remove all Port Forwarding settings from the table, just click Delete All button. Click Reset will clear your current selections. Click at the bottom of the screen to save the configurations. You can now configure other advance sections or start using the router.
67 2.6.2 Virtual Server Use the Virtual Server function when you want different servers/clients in your LAN to handle different service/Internet application type (e.g. Email, FTP, Web server etc.) from the Internet. Computers use numbers called port numbers to recognize a particular service/Internet application type. The Virtual Server allows you to redirect a particular service port number (from the Internet/WAN Port) to a particular LAN private IP address and its service port number. (See Glossary for an explanation on Port number) Parameters Description Enable Virtual Serve Enable Virtual Server. Private IP This is the LAN client/host IP address that the Public Port number packet will be sent to. Note: You need to give your LAN PC clients a fixed/static IP address in order to make Virtual Server working properly. Private Port This is the port number (of the above Private IP host) that the below Public Port number will be changed to when the
68 packet enters your LAN (to the LAN Server/Client IP) Type Select the port number protocol type (TCP, UDP or both). If you are unsure, keep it untouched. Public Port Enter the service (service/Internet application) port number from the Internet that will be redirected to the above Private IP address host in your LAN Note: Virtual Server function will have priority over the DMZ function if there is a conflict between the Virtual Server and the DMZ settings. Comment You can enter the description of this setting here. Add Virtual Server Fill in the Private IP, Private Port, Type, “Public Port” and Comment of the setting to be added and then click Add. Then this Virtual Server setting will be added into the Current Virtual Server Table below. If you found any typo before adding it and want to correct it, just click Clear and the fields will be cleared. Remove Virtual Server If you want to remove some Virtual Server settings from the “Current Virtual Server Table, select the Virtual Server settings you want to remove in the table and then click Delete Selected. If you want remove all Virtual Server settings from the table, just click Delete All button. Click Reset will clear your current selections. Click at the bottom of the screen to save the configurations. You can now configure other advance sections or start using the router. Note: The function of NAS FTP/HTTP server will be affected after you setting FTP/HTTP server in Virtual Server, due to the priority of settings in Virtual Server are higher than in NAS.
69 Example: Virtual Server The diagram below demonstrates one of the ways you can use the Virtual Server function. Use the Virtual Server when you want the web server located in your private LAN to be accessible to Internet users. The configuration below means that any request coming form the Internet to access your web server will be translated to your LAN’s web server (192.168.2.2). Note: For the virtual server to work properly Internet/remote users must know your global IP address. (For websites you will need to have a fixed/static global/public IP address) 2.6.3 Special Applications Some applications require multiple connections, such as Internet games, video conferencing, Internet telephony and others. In this section you can configure the router to support multiple connections for these types of applications.
