Advanced Internet Functions

•Communication Applications. Support for Internet communication applications, such as interactive Games, Telephony, and Conferencing applications, which are often difficult to use when behind a Firewall, is included.

•Special Internet Applications. Applications which use non-standard connections or port numbers are normally blocked by the Firewall. The ability to define and allow such applications is provided, to enable such applications to be used normally.

•Virtual Servers. This feature allows Internet users to access Internet servers on your LAN. The required setup is quick and easy.

•DMZ. One (1) PC on your local LAN can be configured to allow unrestricted 2-way communication with Servers or individual users on the Internet. This provides the ability to run programs which are incompatible with Firewalls.

•URL Filter. Use the URL Filter to block access to undesirable Web sites by LAN users.

•Internet Access Log. See which Internet connections have been made.

•VPN Pass through Support. PCs with VPN (Virtual Private Networking) software using PPTP, L2TP and IPSec are transparently supported - no configuration is required.

LAN Features

•4-Port Switching Hub. The TW100-BRV204 incorporates a 4-port 10/100BaseT switching hub, making it easy to create or extend your LAN.

•DHCP Server Support. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol provides a dynamic IP address to PCs and other devices upon request. The TW100-BRV204 can act as a DHCP Server for devices on your local LAN and WLAN.

•Multi Segment LAN Support. LANs containing one or more segments are supported, via the TW100-BRV204 's RIP (Routing Information Protocol) support and built-in static routing table.

Configuration & Management

•Easy Setup. Use your WEB browser from anywhere on the LAN or WLAN for configu- ration.

•Remote Management. The TW100-BRV204 can be managed from any PC on your LAN. And, if the Internet connection exists, it can also (optionally) be configured via the Internet.

•UPnP Support. UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) allows automatic discovery and con- figuration of the TW100-BRV204. UPnP is by supported by Windows ME, XP, or later.

Security Features

•Password - protected Configuration. Optional password protection is provided to prevent unauthorized users from modifying the configuration data and settings.

•NAT Protection. An intrinsic side effect of NAT (Network Address Translation) tech- nology is that by allowing all LAN users to share a single IP address, the location and even the existence of each PC is hidden. From the external viewpoint, there is no network, only a single device - the TW100-BRV204.

•Stateful Inspection Firewall. All incoming data packets are monitored and all incom- ing server requests are filtered, thus protecting your network from malicious attacks from external sources.
