2.4 NAT

Network Address Translation (NAT) allows multiple users at your local site to access the Internet through a single Public IP Address or multiple Public IP Addresses. NAT provides Firewall protection from hacker attacks and has the flexibility to allow you to map Private IP Addresses to Public IP Addresses for key services such as Websites and FTP.

Parameter

Description

2.4.1 Address Mapping

The Broadband router allows one or more Public IP

 

Address(es) to be mapped to a pool of local Private IP

 

Address(es). This feature is particular useful when you

 

have multiple global IPs and want to divide local users

 

into different groups.

2.4.2 Virtual Server

You can have different services (e.g. email, FTP, Web

 

etc.) going to different service servers/clients in your

 

LAN. The Virtual Server allows you to re-direct a

 

particular service port number (from the Internet/WAN

 

Port) to a particular LAN IP address and its service port

 

number.

2.4.3 Special Applications

Some applications require multiple connections, such as

 

Internet games, video conferencing, Internet telephony

 

and others. In this section you can configure the router

 

to support these types of applications.
