Fixed or Dynamic IP Address. On the Internet (WAN port) connection, the TW100- BRF114U supports both Dynamic IP Address (IP Address is allocated on connection) and Fixed IP Address.

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.

DDNS Support. DDNS (Dynamic DNS) allows Internet users to connect to Virtual Servers on your LAN using a domain name, even if your IP address is not fixed. A num- ber of popular DDNS services are supported.

Multi-DMZ.For each WAN (Internet) IP address allocated to you, 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 in- compatible 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.

Access Control. Using the Access Control feature, you can assign LAN users to differ- ent groups, and determine which Internet services are available to each group.

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

Multi Segment LAN Support. LANs containing one or more segments are supported, via the TW100-BRF114U 's RIP (Routing Information Protocol) support and built-in static routing table.

Shared USB Printer (Network Printer). A printer connected to the TW100- BRF114U ‘s USB port can be shared by all Windows PCs on your LAN, using the provided Print Port driver. Unix systems can also share the printer, using LPD.
