Port Forwarding and Port Triggering

Port forwarding and port triggering are advanced features that affect the behavior of the
firewall in your router. In the Port Forwarding / Port Triggering screen, you can make local
computers or servers available to the Internet for different services (for example, FTP or
HTTP), to play Internet games (like Quake III), or to use Internet applications (like
CU-SeeMe).
• Port forwarding is designed for FTP, web server, or other server-based services. Once
port forwarding is set up, requests from the Internet are forwarded to the correct server.

and then select the mode you want for your environment.
• Wireless Repeater. In this mode, the MBR1310 will communicate
only with another base station mode wireless station. You have to
enter the MAC address (physical address) of the other base
station mode wireless station in the field provided. WEP /
WPA-PSK [TKIP] can (and should) be used to protect this
communication.
• Wireless Base Station. Select this only if this MBR1310 is the
master for a group of Repeater mode wireless stations. The other
repeater mode wireless stations have to be set to wireless
repeater mode, using this MBR1310's MAC address. They then
send all traffic to this master, rather than communicating directly
with each other. WEP / WPA-PSK [TKIP] can (and should) be used
to protect this traffic. If this option is selected, you have to enter the
MAC addresses of the other access points in the fields provided.
