DHCP Client List

The DHCP Clients List displays the IP Address, Host Name and MAC Address of each client that has requested an IP address since the last reboot of the Modem- Router. Check the FIX box to have the IP address and the MAC address linked so that the IP address will always be assigned as it is on this screen.

NAT

From this section you can configure the Virtual Server, and Special Application features that provide control over the TCP/ UDP port openings in the Modem-Router’s firewall. This section can be used to support several Internet based applications such as web, email, FTP, and Telnet.

NAT Settings

NAT allows one or more public IP addresses to be shared by multiple internal users. You can enable

or disable NAT here. Recommended setting = Enable.
