Services Settings
Enable
This setting specifies whether the inbound service rule takes effect.
When Yes is selected, the inbound service rule takes effect. If the inbound traffic matches the
specified IP protocol and port, action will be taken by the Peplink Balance based on the other
parameters of the rule.
When No is selected, the inbound service rule does not take effect. The Peplink Balance will
disregard the other parameters of the rule.
Service Name
This setting identifies the service to the system administrator. Only alphanumeric and the
underscore “_” characters are valid.
IP Protocol
The IP Protocol setting, along with the Port setting, specifies the protocol of the service as
TCP, UDP, ICMP, or IP. Inbound traffic that matches the specified IP Protocol and Port(s)
will be forwarded to the LAN hosts specified by the Servers setting.
Upon choosing a protocol, the Protocol Selection Tool drop-down menu can be used to
automatically the port information of common Internet services (e.g. HTTP, HTTPS, etc.).
After selecting an item from the Protocol Selection Tool drop-down menu, the protocol and
the port number will remain manually modifiable.
Port
The Port setting specifies the port(s) that correspond to the service, and can be configured to
behave in one of the following manners:
Any Port, Single Port, Port Range, Port Map, and Range Mapping
Any Port: all traffic that is received by the Peplink Balance via the specified protocol is
forwarded to the servers specified by the Servers setting.
For example, if IP Protocol is set to TCP and Port is set to Any Port, then all TCP traffic will
be forwarded to the configured servers.
Single Port: traffic that is received by the Peplink Balance via the specified protocol at the
specified port is forwarded via the same port to the servers specified by the Servers setting.
