Port Forwarding
Use this feature to forward incoming service requests to a server on your local network. You
may enter a single port number or a range of port numbers to be forwarded, and the local IP
address of the desired server.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows the individual client computers to
obtain the TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a centralized DHCP server. The Prestige has
built-in DHCP server capability, enabled by default, which means it can assign IP addresses,
an IP default gateway and DNS servers to all systems that support the DHCP client.
Any IP
The Any IP feature allows a computer to access the Internet without changing the network
settings (such as IP address and subnet mask) of the computer, when the IP addresses of the
computer and the Prestige are not in the same subnet.
Full Network Management
The embedded web configurator is an all-platform web-based utility that allows you to easily
access the Prestige's management settings and configure the firewall. Most functions of the
Prestige are also software configurable via the SMT (System Management Terminal)
interface. The SMT is a menu-driven interface that you can access over a telnet connection.
RoadRunner Support
In addition to standard cable modem services, the Prestige supports Time Warner's
RoadRunner Service.
