("0-9", "A-F").
You must configure all four keys, but only one key can be activated at any one time. The
default key is key 1.
WPA-PSK
Encryption:
TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) utilizes a stronger encryption
method and incorporates Message Integrity Code (MIC) to provide protection against
hackers.
Pre-Shared key:
The key for
network authentication. The input format is in character
style and key size should be in the range between 8 and 64 characters.

4.3 Advanced Setup
4.3.1 Routing
If you have another router with a LAN-to-LAN connection, you may create a static routing on
the router that is the gateway to Internet.
#:
Item number
Dest IP:
IP address of the destination network
Mask:
The destination mask address.
Gateway IP:
IP address of the gateway or existing interface that this route uses.
Metric:
It represents the cost of transmission for routing purposes. The number need not
be precise, but it must be between 1 and 15.
Device:
Media/channel selected to append the route.
Use:
Counter for access times.
Edit:
Edit the route; this icon is not shown for system default route.
Drop:
Drop the route; this icon is not shown for system default route.

ADD Route
Destination IP Address
This is the destination subnet IP address.
IP Subnet Mask
It is the destination IP addresses based on above destination subnet IP
Gateway IP Address
This is the gateway IP address to which packets are to be
forwarded.
Metric
It represents the cost of transmission for routing purposes. The number need not
be precise, but it must be between 1 and 15.
Announced in RIP:
This parameter determines if the Prestige will include the route to the
remote node in its RIP broadcasts. Set “Yes”, it is kept private and is not included in RIP
broadcasts. Set “No”, the remote node will be propagated to other hosts through RIP
broadcasts.

4.3.2 NAT
The
NAT (Network Address Translation - NAT, RFC 1631) is the translation of the IP address
of a host in a packet. The default setting is
Dynamic NAPT
. It provides dynamic Network
Address Translation capability between LAN and multiple WAN connections, and the LAN
traffic is routed to appropriate WAN connections based on the destination IP addresses and
Route Table. This eliminates the need for the static NAT session configuration between
multiple LAN clients and multiple WAN connections.
Virtual Circuit:
VPI (Virtual Path Identifier) and VCI (Virtual Channel Identifier) define a
virtual circuit. There are eight groups of PVC can be defined and used.
Number of IPs:
User can select Single or Multiple.
DMZ
The DMZ Host is a local computer exposed to the Internet. When setting a particular internal
IP address as the DMZ Host, all incoming packets will be checked by the Firewall and NAT
algorithms then passed to the DMZ host, when a packet received does not use a port
number used by any other Virtual Server entries.

DMZ:
~
Disabled:
As set in default setting, it disables the DMZ function.
~
Enabled:
It activates your DMZ function.
DMZ Host Address:
Give a static IP address to the DMZ Host when
Enabled
radio
button is checked. Be aware that this IP will be exposed to the WAN/Internet.

button to apply your changes.
Virtual Server
In TCP/IP and UDP networks a port is a 16-bit number used to identify which application
program (usually a server) incoming connections should be delivered to. Some ports have
numbers that are pre-assigned to them by the IANA (the Internet Assigned Numbers
Authority), and these are referred to as “well-known ports”. Servers follow the well-known
port assignments so clients can locate them.
If you wish to run a server on your network that can be accessed from the WAN (i.e. from
other machines on the Internet that are outside your local network), or any application that
can accept incoming connections (e.g. Peer-to-peer/P2P software such as instant
messaging applications and P2P file-sharing applications) and are using NAT (Network
Address Translation), then you will usually need to configure your router to forward these
incoming connection attempts using specific ports to the PC on your network running the
application. You will also need to use port forwarding if you want to host an online game
server.
The reason for this is that when using NAT, your publicly accessible IP address will be used
by and point to your router, which then needs to deliver all traffic to the private IP addresses
used by your PCs. Please see the
WAN
configuration section of this manual for more
information on NAT.
