Toggling Address Translation Enabled to Yes enables the Netopia R3100 to send out an all-zeros IPCP address that requests an IP to be assigned to the Netopia R3100’s WAN interface. Note that the remote IP address is 127.0.0.2, which should also be the Default Gateway under IP Setup in System Configuration. This is done for profile matching purposes and because the IP address of the router the Netopia R3100 is dialing is not always known.

As mentioned earlier in this appendix, NAT works well for IP sessions originated on the Netopia R3100’s LAN interface destined for the Internet without any additional configuration. For incoming IP connections from the Internet to a host on the Netopia R3100’s LAN interface, Exported Services need to be used.

Exported Services are configured under IP Setup in System Configuration. This is where a particular type of TCP or UDP service originating from the Internet is redirected to a host on the Netopia R3100’s LAN interface. An example of this screen is as follows:
