Monitor Screen
Use this screen to view the amount of network bandwidth that applications running in the network
are using.
The bandwidth is measured in kilobits per second (kbps).
The monitor shows what kinds of applications are running in the network, the maximum kbps that
each application can use, as well as the percentage of bandwidth it is using.

DESCRIPTION
FTP
File Transfer Program enables fast transfer of files, including large files that may
not be possible by e-mail.
WWW
The World Wide Web (WWW) is an Internet system to distribute graphical,
hyper-linked information, based on Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) - a
client/server protocol for the World Wide Web. The Web is not synonymous with
the Internet; rather, it is just one service on the Internet. Other services on the
Internet include Internet Relay Chat and Newsgroups. The Web is accessed
through use of a browser.
E-Mail
Electronic mail consists of messages sent through a computer network to
specific groups or individuals. Here are some default ports for e-mail:
VoIP (SIP)
Sending voice signals over the Internet is called Voice over IP or VoIP. Session
Initiated Protocol
(SIP) is an internationally recognized standard for
implementing VoIP. SIP is an application-layer control (signaling) protocol that
handles the setting up, altering and tearing down of voice and multimedia
sessions over the Internet.
SIP is transported primarily over UDP but can also be transported over TCP.

BitTorrent
BitTorrent is a free P2P (peer-to-peer) sharing tool allowing you to distribute
large software and media files. BitTorrent requires you to search for a file with a
searching engine yourself. It distributes files by corporation and trading, that is,
the client downloads the file in small pieces and share the pieces with other
peers to get other half of the file.
Gaming
Online gaming services lets you play multiplayer games on the Internet via
broadband technology. As of this writing, your NBG-419N supports Xbox,
Playstation, Battlenet and MSN Game Zone.

Remote Management
22.1
Overview
This chapter provides information on the Remote Management screens.
Remote Management allows you to manage your NBG-419N from a remote location through the
following interfaces:
LAN and WAN
LAN only
WAN only
Note: The NBG-419N is managed using the Web Configurator.
22.2
What You Can Do
Use the
WWW
screen (
Section 22.4 on page 160
) to define the interface/s from which the NBG-
419N can be managed remotely and specify a secure client that can manage the NBG-419N.
22.3
What You Need to Know
Remote management over LAN or WAN will not work when:
1
The IP address in the
Secured Client IP Address
field (
Section 22.4 on page 160
)
does not
match the client IP address. If it does not match, the NBG-419N will disconnect the session
immediately.
2
There is already another remote management session. You may only have one remote
management session running at one time.
3
There is a firewall rule that blocks it.
22.3.1
Remote Management and NAT
When NAT is enabled:
Use the NBG-419N’s WAN IP address when configuring from the WAN.
Use the NBG-419N’s LAN IP address when configuring from the LAN.

System Timeout
There is a default system management idle timeout of five minutes (three hundred seconds). The
NBG-419N automatically logs you out if the management session remains idle for longer than this
timeout period. The management session does not time out when a statistics screen is polling. You
can change the timeout period in the
System
screen
