TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) - A method (protocol) used along with the Internet Protocol (Internet Protocol) to send data in the form of message units between computers over the Internet. While IP takes care of handling the actual delivery of the data, TCP takes care of keeping track of the individual units of data (called packets) that a message is divided into for efficient routing through the Internet.
Example: ID Trigger Port Trigger Type Public Port Public Type Comment 1 28800 UDP 2300-2400, 47624 UDP MSN Game Zone 2 28800 UDP 2300-2400, 47624 TCP MSN Game Zone
2-4-2 Virtual Server The virtual server option allows you to define port number on your router for redirection to an internal LAN IP address. This feature is useful for hosting online services such as FTP or Web servers. Up to 10 entries. Example: ID Server IP Mapping Port Type Comment 1 192.168.10.20 80 TCP Web Server 2 192.168.10.12 20 TCP FTP Server 3 192.168.10.12 21 TCP FTP Server 4 192.168.10.
2-5 Firewall The 4-Port Broadband Router provides extensive firewall protection by restricting connection parameters to limit the risk of hacker attacks and by defending against a wide array of common hacker attacks. The 4-Port Broadband Router provides packet filtering rules by restricting service ports, IP address or MAC address. However, for applications that require unrestricted access to the Internet, you may configure a specific client/server as a demilitarized zone (DMZ).
Example: 2-5-3 MAC Address Control MAC Address Control allows you to block certain client PCs from accessing the Internet based on MAC addresses. Up to 32 entries.
2-5-4 DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) If a local client PC cannot run an Internet application properly from behind the NAT firewall, open the client up to unrestricted two-way Internet access by defining a PC as a virtual DMZ Host. Up to 5 clients can be mapped to specific public IP addresses. Multiple DMZ entries only apply if you are using a static IP address from your ISP and you have multiple static public IP addresses assigned by your ISP.
2-5-5 URL Filter The URL filtering feature will allow you to deny access to specific websites. 2-6 Routing Allows you to create or define static routes on the LAN. Up to 20 static routing entries. 2-6-1 Static Routing Static routing allows you to define routes to other networks to routing devices or routers that are located on your LAN network.
