If you want to use a special service that isn’t on the Gateway’s preprogrammed list, you can do so manually. Before you do so, however, we recommend that you visit this web site: http://www.practicallynetworked.com/sharing/specialapps. htm. This site contains easy-to-understand instructions about special services. It also includes a list of open ports, which you will need to set up a virtual server.

Once you have determined which Service Port you want to use, type in the number, then type the last three numbers of that particular user’s IP address and check Enable. (The available range is 1-254.)

4.4 Configuring LAN MAC Addresses

The Gateway’s LAN MAC Address Control option gives a system administrator control over each individual computer’s network privileges. This feature is also useful as an additional security measure, because you can restrict access to known computers on the network. The LAN MAC Address Control option uses a 12-digit alphanumeric string to uniquely identify each network hardware device.

The Connection Control item allows control over which clients have access to the Gateway. You have two choices: allow or deny. If you deny a client a connection, it cannot access any Internet, print server, or administrative functions.

Note: The Association Control item is for wireless access only and is not supported in your IG-4160.

To set up LAN MAC Address Control parameters, follow the steps below. Refer to the accompanying table if you need additional information regarding the differences in privileges.
