Idle Timeout

Idle Timeout is designed so that after there is no traffic to the Internet for a pre-configured amount of time, the connection will automatically be disconnected.

ISP

Internet Service Provider is a business that provides connectivity to the Internet for individuals and other businesses or organizations.

ISP Gateway Address

The ISP Gateway Address is an IP address for the Internet router located at the ISP's office.

LAN

Local Area Network is a group of computers and devices connected together in a relatively small area (such as a house or an office). Your home network is considered a LAN.

MAC Address

MAC stands for Media Access Control. A MAC address is the hardware address of a device connected to a network. The MAC address is a unique identifier for a device with an Ethernet interface. It is comprised of two parts: 3 bytes of data that corresponds to the Manufacturer ID (unique for each manufacturer), plus 3 bytes that are often used as the product’s serial number.

NAT

Network Address Translator is defined by RFC 1631. Enable a LAN network to use one set of IP address for internal traffic. A NAT box located where the LAN meets the Internet provides the necessary IP address translation. This helps provide a sort of firewall and allow for a wider address range to be used internally without danger of conflict. Using the router’s NAT capability, you can access the Internet from any computer on your home network without having to purchase more IP addresses from your ISP.

Port

Network Clients (LAN PC) uses port numbers to distinguish one network application/protocol over another. Below is a list of common applications and protocol/port numbers:
