Network Address Translation (NAT) 6.1 6 Chapter Chapter 6 C H A PT ER 6 Virtual Servers Click Advanced Setup > NAT > Virtual Servers to open the screen where you manage the list of virtual server rules. A virtual server set is a list of inside (behind NAT on the LAN) servers, for example, web or FTP, that you can make visible to the outside world even though NAT makes your whole inside network appear as a single computer to the outside world.
Table 32 Virtual Servers (continued) LABEL DESCRIPTION Server Name This field displays the name of the service used by the packets for this virtual server. External Port Start This is the first external port number that identifies a service. External Port End This is the last external port number that identifies a service. Protocol This show whether the virtual server applies to TCP traffic, UDP traffic, or both.
You may enter a single port number or a range of port numbers to be forwarded, and the local IP address of the desired server. The port number identifies a service; for example, web service is on port 80 and FTP on port 21. In some cases, such as for unknown services or where one server can support more than one service (for example both FTP and web service), it might be better to specify a range of port numbers. You can allocate a server IP address that corresponds to a port or a range of ports.
Table 33 Virtual Servers Add LABEL DESCRIPTION Use Interface Select a WAN interface for which you want to configure a virtual server rules. Service Name Select a Service: use the drop-down list to select a service. Custom Service: type a name to specify a different service. Server IP Address Enter the inside IP address of the LAN device to which the virtual server forwards traffic. Apply/Save Click this button to save your changes.
Trigger port forwarding solves this problem by allowing computers on the LAN to dynamically take turns using the service. The Router records the IP address of a LAN computer that sends traffic to the WAN to request a service with a specific port number and protocol (a "trigger" port). When the Router's WAN port receives a response with a specific port number and protocol ("open" port), the Router forwards the traffic to the LAN IP address of the computer that sent the request.
Table 34 Port Triggering LABEL DESCRIPTION Add Click this to create a new rule. Remove Select entries and click the Remove button to delete them. # This is the index number of the entry. Status This field displays whether the port triggering rule is active or not. A yellow bulb signifies that this rule is active. A gray bulb signifies that this rule is not active. Application Name This field displays the name of the service used by this rule.
6.2.1 Add Port Triggering Rule This screen lets you create new port triggering rules. Click Add in the Port Triggering screen to open the following screen. Figure 38 Port Triggering: Add Table 35 Port Triggering: Add LABEL DESCRIPTION User Interface Select a WAN interface for which you want to configure port triggering rules.
Table 35 Port Triggering: Add (continued) LABEL DESCRIPTION Trigger Port End Type a port number or the ending port number in a range of port numbers. Trigger Protocol Select the transport layer protocol from TCP, UDP, or TCP/UDP. Open Port Start The open port is a port (or a range of ports) that a server on the WAN uses when it sends out a particular service. The Router forwards the traffic with this port (or range of ports) to the client computer on the LAN that requested the service.
6.3 DMZ Host Click Advanced Setup > NAT > DMZ Host to specify the IP address of a default server to receive packets from ports not specified in the Port Forwarding screen. Figure 39 DMZ Host Table 36 DMZ Host LABEL DESCRIPTION DMZ Host IP Address Enter the IP address which receives packets from ports that are not specified in the Port Forwarding screen. Note: If you do not assign a default server, the Router discards all packets received for ports not specified in the virtual server configuration.
The SIP ALG allows SIP calls to pass through NAT by examining and translating IP addresses embedded in the data stream. When the Router registers with the SIP register server, the SIP ALG translates the Router’s private IP address inside the SIP data stream to a public IP address. You do not need to use STUN or an outbound proxy if you enable the SIP ALG. Figure 40 SIP ALG Table 37 SIP ALG LABEL DESCRIPTION Enable SIP ALG Enable this to make sure SIP (VoIP) works correctly with port-forwarding.

12.1 12 UPnP Chapter Chapter 12 C H AP T ER 1 2 UPnP Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is a distributed, open networking standard that uses TCP/IP for simple peer-to-peer network connectivity between devices. A UPnP device can dynamically join a network, obtain an IP address, convey its capabilities and learn about other devices on the network. In turn, a device can leave a network smoothly and automatically when it is no longer in use. Use the UPnP screen to enable the UPnP feature on your Router.

15 IP Tunnel Chapter Chapter 15 C H AP T ER 1 5 15.1 IPv6inIPv4 (6RD) Use IPv6 Rapid Deployment (6RD) when the local network uses IPv6 and the ISP has an IPv4 network. When the Router has an IPv4 WAN address and is configured to IPv4 only, you can enable 6RD to encapsulate IPv6 packets in IPv4 packets to cross the ISP’s IPv4 network.
Table 65 IPv6inIPv4 LABEL DESCRIPTION Name This displays the IPv6 to IPv4 tunnel’s name. WAN This displays the associated WAN interface. LAN This displays the associated LAN interface. Dynamic This displays the type of 6RD. IPv4 Mask Length This displays the subnet mask number for the IPv4 network. 6rd Prefix This displays the IPv6 prefix for tunneling IPv6 traffic to the ISP’s border relay router and connecting to the native IPv6 Internet.
Table 66 IPv6inIPv4: Add LABEL DESCRIPTION Tunnel Name Enter a descriptive name for the IPv6 through IPv4 tunnel.
