Communication Applications
Select an Application
This lists applications which may generate incoming connections,
where the destination PC (on your local LAN) is unknown.
Send incoming calls to
This lists the PCs on your LAN.
•
If necessary, you can add PCs manually, using the "PC
Database" option on the advanced menu.
•
For each application listed above, you can choose a destina-
tion PC.
•
There is no need to "Save" after each change; you can set the
destination PC for each application, then click "Save".
Special Applications
If you use Internet applications which use non-standard connections or port numbers, you may
find that they do not function correctly because they are blocked by the TW100-BRF114U's
firewall. In this case, you can define the application as a "Special Application".
Special Applications Screen
This screen can be reached by clicking the
Special Applications
button on the
Internet
screen.
You can then define your Special Applications. You will need detailed information about the
application; this is normally available from the supplier of the application.
Also, note that the terms "Incoming" and "Outgoing" on this screen refer to traffic from the
client (PC) viewpoint

Name
Enter a descriptive name to identify this Special Application.
Incoming
Ports
•
Type
- Select the protocol (TCP or UDP) used when you receive data
from the special application or service. (Note: Some applications use
different protocols for outgoing and incoming data).
•
Start
- Enter the beginning of the range of port numbers used by the
application server, for data you receive. If the application uses a single
port number, enter it in both the "Start" and "Finish" fields.
•
Finish
- Enter the end of the range of port numbers used by the applica-
tion server, for data you receive.
Outgoing
Ports
•
Type
- Select the protocol (TCP or UDP) used when you send data to
the remote system or service.
•

tion server, for data you send to it. If the application uses a single port
number, enter it in both the "Start" and "Finish" fields.
Using a Special Application
•
Configure the
Special Applications
screen as required.
•
On your PC, use the application normally. Remember that only one (1) PC can use each
Special application at any time. Also, when 1 PC is finished using a particular Special Ap-
plication, there may need to be a "Time-out" before another PC can use the same Special
Application. The "Time-out" period may be up to 3 minutes.
If an application still cannot function correctly,
try using the "DMZ" feature.
Multi-DMZ
This feature, if enabled, allows one (1) or more computers on your LAN to be exposed to all
users on the Internet (if you only have 1 WAN IP addresses, only DMZ 1 can be used), allow-
ing unrestricted 2-way communication between the "DMZ PC" and other Internet users or
Servers.
•
This allows almost any application to be used on the "DMZ PC".
•
The "DMZ PC" will receive all "Unknown" connections and data.
•
If the DMZ feature is enabled, you must select the PC to be used as the "DMZ PC".
•
The DMZ feature can be Enabled and Disabled on the
Advanced Internet
screen.

The "DMZ PC" is effectively outside the Firewall, mak-
ing it more vulnerable to attacks. For this reason, you
should only enable the DMZ feature when required.
URL Filter
The URL Filter allows you to block access to undesirable Web site
•
To use this feature, you must define "filter strings". If the "filter string" appears in a
requested URL, the request is blocked.
•
Enabling the
URL Filter
also affects the Internet
Access Log
. If Enabled, the "Destination"
field in the log will display the URL. Otherwise, it will display the IP Address.
•
The
URL Filter
can be Enabled or Disabled on the
Advanced Internet
screen.
URL Filter Screen

Internet
screen to access the
URL Filter

Any URL which contains ANY entry ANYWHERE in the URL will
be blocked.

Virtual Servers
This feature allows you to make Servers on your LAN accessible to Internet users. Normally,
Internet users would not be able to access a server on your LAN because:
•
Your Server does not have a valid external IP Address.
•
Attempts to connect to devices on your LAN are blocked by the firewall in this device.
The "Virtual Server" feature solves these problems and allows Internet users to connect to your
servers, as illustrated below.
Figure 41: Virtual Servers
IP Address seen by Internet Users
Note that, in this illustration, both Internet users are connecting to the same IP Address, but
using different protocols.
To Internet users, all virtual Servers on your LAN have the same IP Address.
This IP Address is allocated by your ISP.
This address should be static, rather than dynamic, to make it easier for Internet users to
connect to your Servers.
However, you can use the
DDNS (Dynamic DNS)
feature to allow users to connect to your
Virtual Servers using a URL, instead of an IP Address.
