3-5-2 NAT Network address translations solve the problem if sharing a single IP address to multiple computers. Without NAT, all computers must be assigned with a valid Internet IP address to get connected to Internet, but Internet service providers only provide very few IP addresses to every user. Therefore it’s necessary to use NAT technology to share a single Internet IP address to multiple computers on local network, so everyone can get connected to Internet.
3-5-2-1 Virtual Server This function allows you to redirect a port on Internet IP address (on WAN port) to a specified port of an IP address on local network, so you can setup an Internet service on the computer on local network, without exposing it on Internet directly. You can also build many sets of port redirection, to provide many different Internet services on different local computers via a single Internet IP address.
Comment Add Reset address which will be redirected to the port number of local IP address defined above. Please input any text to describe this mapping, up to 16 alphanumerical characters. Add the mapping to virtual server table. Remove all inputted values. All existing virtual server mappings will be displayed in this page. To delete one or more mappings, check the box of the mapping, then click ‘Delete Selected’ button to remove the mapping. To delete all existing mappings, click ‘Delete All’ button.
3-5-2-2 Special Applications Some applications require more than one connection a time; these applications won’t work with simple NAT rules.
