RIP

RIP (Routing Information Protocol) is used for advertising routes to other routers. Thus all the routes in the router’s routi

ng table will

be advertised to other nearby routers. For example, the route for the router’s Ethernet subnet could be advertised to

a Router on

the PPP interface side so that a Router on this network will know how to route to a device on the router’s Ethernet subnet. Y

ou will

have to add the routes appropriately in the Static Routes section

–

see

Static Routes

.

Please note: Some routers will ignore RIP.

NAT

The NAT page is used to configure the Network Address Translation rules currently in use on the router. The router is in NAT mode

by default.

Figure 23 - NATSettings

This is only needed if you need to map inbound requests to a specific port on the WAN IP address to a device connected on the

Ethernet interface, e.g. a web camera.

How to configure Port Forwarding

OPTION

DEFINITION

Item Number

Number to identify the port mapping, numbered from 1 to as many as needed.

Protocol

Specify the protocol to use for the port mapping. Options include TCP, UDP and All protocols.

Source IP Address

This field s

pecifies either a “Friendly” IP address that is allowed to access the router or a wildcard IP address of

0.0.0.0 that allows all IP addresses to access the router.

Incoming Port Range

This field specifies the external port(s) to listen to.

Destination IP Address

The Local Area Network Address of device to forward inbound requests to.

Destination Port Range

The Local Area Network Port(s) to forward connections to.

Table 15 - NAT Configuration Items

1.

Enter the IP Mapping configuration information as appropriate.

2.

Click the “Save” button to save any changes to the settings.

Please note:

If the “Incoming Port

Range” specifies a single port (as above) then the destination port can be set to any port.

If the “Incoming Port Range” specifies a range of port numbers then the “Destination Port Range” MUST be the

same as the “Incoming Port Range”.

To delete a port f

orwarding rule, click on the corresponding “Delete Entry” link from the list of IP Mappings.

DMZ

The Demilitarised Zone (DMZ) enables a device to utilise a direct connection to the WAN. This means any incoming connections are

forwarded directly to this device.

The DMZ page is used to specify the IP Address of the device to this feature.

Figure 24 - DMZ Settings

1.

Click the “Enable” button.

2.

Enter the IP Address of the device you wish to become the DMZ host.

MAC / IP / Port Filtering

The Wireless LAN MAC / IP / Port filter feature ensures the network accessibility for the wireless client devices can be controlled.

When the MAC/IP/Port filter

is enabled with a default policy of “

A

ccepted”, the

rules that are created indicate which packets to drop

while all packets not listed are accepted. When the MAC/IP/Port filter is enabled with a

default policy of “Dropped”,

the rules that

are created indicate which packets to accept while all other packets not listed are dropped. You can create up to 20 rules to control

wireless client access.

The HTTP port (80) is enabled by default, allowing access to the web user interface from any wireless client. If you want to restrict

access to the web user interface

, set this to “Disable” and create a rule to allow access to port 80 for at least one client so that you

do not become locked out of the web user interface.
