Supported Traffic; Support For Aol Instant Messenger (Aim) File Transfer - Netopia 3341-ENT Firmware User Manual

Complex maps
Map lists and server lists are completely independent of each other. A Connection Profile can use one or the
other or both.
MultiNAT allows complex mapping and requires more complex configuration than in earlier firmware versions.
Multiple mapped interior subnets are supported, and the rules for mapping each of the subnets may be
different. The figure below illustrates a possible multiNAT configuration.

206.1.1.1
206.1.1.2

206.1.2.1 – 6
(possible later)
In order to support this type of mapping, you define two address ranges. First, you define a public range which
contains the first and last public address to be used and the way in which these addresses should be used
(PAT, static, or dynamic). You then configure an address map which defines the private IP address or addresses
to be used and which public range they should be mapped to. You add the address map to the list of address
maps which are configured, creating a map list. The mappings in the map list are order-dependent and are
compared in order from the top of the list to the bottom. If a particular resource is not available, subordinate
mappings can be defined that will redirect traffic.
Supported traffic
MultiNat supports the following IP protocols:
•
PAT: TCP/UDP traffic which does not carry source or destination IP addresses or ports in the data stream
(i.e., HTTP, Telnet, 'r' commands, tftp, NFS, NTP, SMTP, NNTP, etc.).
•
Static NAT: All IP protocol traffic which does not carry or otherwise rely on the source or destination IP
addresses in the data stream.
• Dynamic NAT: All IP protocol traffic which does not carry or otherwise rely on the source or destination IP
addresses in the data stream.

Support for AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) File Transfer

Netopia Firmware Version 8.7 provides Application Level Gateway (ALG) support for AOL Instant Messenger
(AIM) file transfer. This allows AIM users to exchange files, even when both users are behind NAT. Previously,
the file transfer function would work only if one or neither of the two users were behind NAT.
Currently there is a restriction that the remote user must be routed to via the WAN interface, otherwise the
connections will fail. There is no restriction as to the number of connections.
There is no user configuration required for this feature.
