Networking - NAT

Network Address Translation (NAT) translates multiple IP addresses on a private LAN to one public address that is sent out to the Internet by your ISP. This adds a level of security since the IP address of a PC connected to the private LAN is never transmitted on the Internet.

A gaming Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) allows one IP address (computer or device) to be exposed to the Internet for online game playing or video conferencing.

To access the screen, click NETWORKING > NAT. Click APPLY to save your settings or CANCEL to cancel changes.
