Dynamic DNS

The DDNS feature allows you to host a server (Web, FTP, Game Server, etc…) using a domain name that you have purchased (www.whateveryournameis.

com) with your dynamically assigned IP address. Most broadband Internet Service Providers assign dynamic (changing) IP addresses. Using a DDNS

service provider, your friends can enter in your domain name to connect to your server no matter what your IP address is.

Port Mapping

Port Mapping supports multiple ports to PVC and bridging groups. Each group performs as an independent network. To support this feature, you

must create mapping groups with appropriate LAN and WAN interfaces using the

Add

button. The

Delete

button removes the grouping and adds

the ungrouped interfaces to the Default group. Only the default group has the IP interface.

Quality of Service

QoS (Quality of Service) is a method for identifying, classifying, and assigning priorities to traffic that passes through the router. This ensures that

time sensitive data (e.g.

video streaming) is given priority over other non-essential data.

This screen allows you to add a network traffic class rule. A rule consists of a traffic

class name and at least one condition. All configured conditions must first be

met before the rule takes effect. Click
