WAN Interface | Select this option to have the ZyWALL send all of a local computer’s traffic through |
to Local Host | the same WAN interface for the period of time that you specify (1 to 600 seconds). |
Mapping | This is useful when a redirect server forwards a local user’s request for a file and |
Timeout | informs the file server that a particular WAN IP address is requesting the file. If the |
| user’s subsequent sessions came from a different WAN IP address, the file server |
| would deny the request. |
