3 Functions and Features

Broadband Modem and NAT

Connects multiple computers to a broadband (cable or

Router

DSL) modem, and/or Ethernet router to access the

 

Internet.

10/100 Mbps Ethernet Interface

Provides a 10/100 Base-TX interface to connect to a DSL

 

or cable modem for broadband Internet access.

Auto-sensing Ethernet Switch

Equipped with a 4/8-port auto-sensing Ethernet switch.

 

 

VPN Supported

Supports multiple IPSec sessions and has built-in PPTP

 

and L2TP VPN servers.

Firewall

All unwanted packets from outside sources are blocked

 

to protect your intranet.

DHCP Server Supported

All networked computers can retrieve TCP/IP settings

 

automatically from this device.

Web-based Configuration

Configurable by any networked computer’s Web browser

 

using Netscape or Internet Explorer.

Network Filter Supported

The Packet Filter lets you control access to a network by

 

analyzing the incoming and outgoing packets; this lets

 

you either letting them pass or halt based on the IP

 

address or the source and destination.

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)

Enables devices such as PCs, routers and printers to be

Supported

plugged into a network and ensure automatic recognition.

 

 

Virtual Server Supported

Lets you make your Website, FTP site, and other services

 

on your LAN accessible to Internet users.

 

 

User Defined Application Sensing

Lets you define the attributes to support special

Tunnel

applications that require multiple connections like

 

Internet gaming, video conferencing, Internet telephony,

 

and so on. This device can sense the application type and

 

opens a multi-port tunnel for it.

DMZ Host Supported

Enables a computer to be fully accessible to the Internet.

 

This function is used when the special application sensing

 

tunnel feature is insufficient to allow an application to

 

function correctly.

SNMP Supported

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a

 

protocol that lets users remotely manage a computer

 

network by polling and setting terminal values, and

 

monitoring network events.

System Time Supported

Lets you synchronize system time with the network time

 

server.

Virtual Computers Supported

The virtual computer lets you use the original NAT

 

feature, which lets you setup the one-to-one mapping of

 

multiple global and local IP addresses.

URL Blocking Supported

Lets you block hundreds of Website connections by

 

simply entering a keyword.

Schedule Rule

Lets you set a time schedule for different services.

 

 

Routing Table Supported

Allows you to determine which physical interface address

 

to use for outgoing IP data grams. If you have more than

 

one router and subnet, enable the routing table to allow

 

packets to find the proper routing path and the different

 

subnets to communicate with each other.
