Section 3

Configuration

 

 

 

Port Forwards:

 

To forward communications from a single port, enter the same port

 

(continued)

 

number in both fields.

 

 

This information must be entered for each port forward.

 

 

 

 

 

 

FACTORY DEFAULT: (blank)

 

 

 

(2) LAN IP Address:

 

 

 

Sets the client on your local network (specified by IP address) to

 

 

 

which communications will be forwarded.

 

 

 

This information must be entered for each port forward.

 

 

 

FACTORY DEFAULT: (blank)

 

 

 

(3) LAN Port Range:

 

 

 

These two fields (“Start” and “End”) define a range of LAN ports to

 

 

 

which communications will be forwarded. To forward to a single

 

 

 

port, enter the same port number in both fields.

 

 

 

This information is optional for each port forward.

 

 

 

FACTORY DEFAULT: (blank)

 

Port Triggers:

 

Sets rules for forwarding inbound communications (from your

 

(ADVANCED)

 

broadband connection) based on specific outbound communications

 

 

 

(or “triggers”) from a LAN client.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Specifically, if a LAN client transmits to the Internet using any of a

 

 

 

set of outbound destination ports, they will be forwarded Internet

 

 

 

responses that are received on a corresponding set of inbound

 

 

 

destination ports.

 

 

 

You may optionally specify a destination port range for forwards, on

 

 

 

the LAN side of the WR850, as well.

 

 

 

This feature can be particularly useful to support real-time games

 

 

 

which require Internet responses to game activity. These responses

 

 

 

might otherwise be blocked by the WR850 firewall.

 

 

 

NOTE: These settings are only used if Operation Mode on the BASIC

 

 

 

Page is set to Router.

 

 

 

You can store up to 20 port triggers, and selectively enable one or

 

 

 

more of them when desired, using the Enabled checkbox at the end

 

 

 

of each row. If more port triggers are required, especially for a

 

 

 

single client, you should consider configuring the client as a DMZ.

NOTE: Port triggers will be applied in the order in which they are listed

on this page.
