3.9.1 NAT Setting
Go to
Advanced Setup->NAT
to setup the NAT features. Network Address Translation (NAT) allows
multiple users at your local site to access the Internet through a single public IP address or multiple
public IP addresses. NAT can also prevent hacker attacks by mapping local addresses to public
addresses for key services such as the Web or FTP.

3.9.2 Virtual Server
Go to
Advanced Setup ->NAT -> Virtual Server
to set virtual server as you need. (Known as Port
Mapping).
You can configure the router as a virtual server so that remote users accessing services such as the
Web or FTP at your local site via public IP addresses can be automatically redirected to local servers
configured with private IP addresses. In other words, depending on the requested service (TCP/UDP
port numbers), the router redirects the external service request to the appropriate server (located at
another internal IP address). For some applications, you need to assign a set or a range of ports
(example 4000-5000) to a specified local machine to route the packets. The router allows the user to
configure the needed port mappings to suit such applications.

3.9.3 DMZ Setting
Go to
Advanced Setup ->NAT -> DMZ
to set DMZ parameters.
If you have a local client PC that cannot run an Internet application properly from behind the NAT
firewall, you can open the client up to unrestricted two-way Internet access by defining a virtual DMZ
Host.
3.9.4 ASDL type Setting
Go to
Advanced Setup ->ADSL
to set different ADSL connection
If you meet a ADSL connection problem, you can select a different ADSL connection type to get more
fast connection.

3.10.1 Static Routing
Go to
Advance Setup -> Routing ->Add
to setup static route features.
The static routing function determines the path that router follows over your network before and after it
passes through your router. You can use static routing to allow different IP domain users to access the
Internet through this device.

3.10.2 Dynamic Routing
Go to
Interface Setup -> Internet
to select Dynamic Route as you need.
The dynamic routing feature of the router can be used to allow the router to automatically adjust to
physical changes in the network's layout. The router uses the dynamic RIP protocol. It determines the
route that the network packets take based on the fewest number of hops between the source and the
destination. The RIP protocol regularly broadcasts routing information to other routers on the network.
