Configuring Servers Behind Port Forwarding (Example)
Let's say you want to assign ports 21-25 to one FTP, Telnet and SMTP server (
A
in the example),
port 80 to another (
B
in the example) and assign a default server IP address of 192.168.1.35 to a
third (
C
in the example). You assign the LAN IP addresses and the ISP assigns the WAN IP address.
The NAT network appears as a single host on the Internet.

Configuring Port Forwarding
Note: The
Port Forwarding
screen is available only when you select
SUA Only
in the
NAT > General
screen.
If you do not assign a
Default Server
IP address, the ZyXEL Device discards all
packets received for ports that are not specified here or in the remote management
setup.
Click
Network > NAT > Port Forwarding
to open the following screen.
See
Table 26 on page 80
for port numbers commonly used for particular services.

Default Server
In addition to the servers for specified services, NAT supports a default server. A
default server receives packets from ports that are not specified in this screen. If
you do not assign a
Default Server
IP address, the ZyXEL Device discards all
packets received for ports that are not specified here or in the remote
management setup.

The following table describes the fields in this screen.
6.6
The SIP ALG Screen
Some NAT routers may include a SIP Application Layer Gateway (ALG). A SIP ALG allows SIP calls
to pass through NAT by examining and translating IP addresses embedded in the data stream.
When the ZyXEL Device registers with the SIP register server, the SIP ALG translates the ZyXEL
Device’s private IP address inside the SIP data stream to a public IP address. You do not need to
use STUN or an outbound proxy if your ZyXEL Device is behind a SIP ALG.
Use this screen to enable and disable the SIP (VoIP) ALG in the ZyXEL Device. To access this
screen, click
Network > NAT > ALG.

DMZ Hosting
For some applications or devices, NAT can cause problems or it might be best to allow some
functions to operate on an private LAN IP address without being “hidden”from the WAN side. DMZ
Hosting allows a singel IP address to be visisble from the WAN.
Use this screen to enable and disable DMZ Hosting and select a specific IP address to apply DMZ
hosting. To access this screen, click
Network > NAT > ALG
.

Firewalls
7.1
Overview
This chapter shows you how to enable and configure the ZyXEL Device firewall. Use these screens
to enable and configure the firewall that protects your ZyXEL Device and network from attacks by
hackers on the Internet and control access to it. By default the firewall:
allows traffic that originates from your LAN computers to go to all other networks.
blocks traffic that originates on other networks from going to the LAN.
The following figure illustrates the default firewall action. User
A
can initiate an IM (Instant
Messaging) session from the LAN to the WAN (1). Return traffic for this session is also allowed (2).
However other traffic initiated from the WAN is blocked (3 and 4).

7.1.1
What You Can Do in the Firewall Screens
Use the
General
screen to enable firewall and/or triangle route on the ZyXEL Device, and set the
default action that the firewall takes on packets that do not match any of the firewall rules.
Use the
Rules
screen to view the configured firewall rules and add, edit or remove a firewall rule.
Use the
Threshold
screen to set the thresholds that the ZyXEL Device uses to determine when
to start dropping sessions that do not become fully established (half-open sessions).

What You Need to Know About Firewall
DoS
Denials of Service (DoS) attacks are aimed at devices and networks with a connection to the
Internet. Their goal is not to steal information, but to disable a device or network so users no longer
