Max NAT/ | When computers use peer to peer applications, such as file sharing applications, they |
Firewall | need to establish NAT sessions. If you do not limit the number of NAT sessions a |
Session Per | single client can establish, this can result in all of the available NAT sessions being |
User | used. In this case, no additional NAT sessions can be established, and users may not |
| be able to access the Internet. |
| Each NAT session establishes a corresponding firewall session. Use this field to limit |
| the number of NAT/Firewall sessions client computers can establish through the |
| ZyXEL Device. |
| If your network has a small number of clients using peer to peer applications, you can |
| raise this number to ensure that their performance is not degraded by the number of |
| NAT sessions they can establish. If your network has a large number of users using |
| peer to peer applications, you can lower this number to ensure no single client is |
| exhausting all of the available NAT sessions. |
