Description

Name

Name for identifying the custom service. The name is for reference purposes only.

Type

The type of protocol. Choices are TCP, UDP, and TCP/UDP. Default is TCP.

LAN Server IP

IP address of the LAN PC or server that is running the service.

Remote IPs

Forwards the service to any remote IP address, one remote IP address, or a range of remote IP

addresses.

Start IP

To specify:

•

A single remote IP address, enter the remote IP address.

•

A range of remote IP addresses, enter the starting IP address here and the ending IP address range in

the next field.

This field is unavailable if the Gateway is configured for any remote IP addresses.

End IP

Ending IP address in the remote IP address range. This field is unavailable if the Gateway is configured for

any remote IP addresses or a single remote IP address.

Public IP Ports

A single public IP port or a range of public IP ports on which the service is provided. If necessary, contact

the application vendor for this information.

Start Public Port

Starting number of the port on which the service is provided.

End Public Port

Ending number of the port on which the service is provided. This field is unavailable if the Gateway is

configured for a single public IP port.

Private Ports

Numbers of the ports whose traffic the Gateway forwards to the LAN. If there is a range of ports, enter the

starting private port here and check

Enable Port Range

private port. The LAN PC server listens for traffic/data on this port (or these ports).

Configuring Access Control

The Access Control menu lets you enable access control to block traffic at the Gateway's

LAN interfaces from accessing the Internet.

To access the Access Control menu, click

Firewall

By default, your Gateway does not block attempts to access the LAN from the Internet. To

enable access control, check

Enable Access Control.

Configuring Special Applications

Using the Special Application menu, you can configure your Gateway to detect port triggers

for detect multiple-session applications and allow them to pass the firewall. For special

applications, besides the initial communication session, there are multiple related sessions

created during the protocol communications. Normally, a normal treats the triggered

sessions as independent sessions and blocks them. However, your Gateway can co-relate

the triggered sessions with the initial session and group them together in the NAT session

table. As a result, you need only specify which protocol type and port number you want to

track, as well as some other related parameters. In this way, the Gateway can pass the

special applications according to the supplied information.

Configuring Your Gateway

Assume, for example, that to use H.323 in a Net Meeting application, a local client starts a

session A to a remote host. The remote host uses session A to communicate with the local

host, but it also could initiate another session B back to the local host. Since there is only

session A recorded in the NAT session table when the local host starts the communication,

session B is treated as an illegal access from the outside and is blocked. Using the Special

Application menu, you can configure the Gateway to co-relate sessions A and B and

automatically open the port for the incoming session B.

The maximum allowed triggers is 50. To enable/disable the special application function,

users can check/uncheck the Enable Triggering checkbox and press the APPLY icon to

make it effective without reboot.

To display the Special Applications menu, click

Firewall

in the menu bar and then click the

Special Application

submenu. Figure 29 shows an example of the menu.

Figure 29. Special Applications Menu

To enable port triggering:

1. In the Special Application menu, check

Enable Triggering

and click the

Apply

button. The

Trigger Table becomes available.

2. Click the

Add

button below the table. The Trigger menu appears (see Figure 30).
