7.3 The LAN Client List Screen

Use this table to assign IP addresses on the LAN to specific individual computers
based on their MAC Addresses.
Every Ethernet device has a unique MAC (Media Access Control) address. The MAC
address is assigned at the factory and consists of six pairs of hexadecimal
characters, for example, 00:A0:C5:00:00:02.

DESCRIPTION
Enable Any IP to allow a computer to access the Internet without
changing its network settings (such as IP address and subnet mask),
even when the IP addresses of the computer and the ZyXEL Device are
not in the same subnet.
When you disable Any IP, only computers with dynamic IP addresses or
static IP addresses in the same subnet as the ZyXEL Device's LAN IP
address can connect to the ZyXEL Device or access the Internet through
the ZyXEL Device.
NetBIOS (Network Basic Input/Output System) are TCP or UDP packets
that enable a computer to connect to and communicate with a LAN. For
some dial-up services such as PPPoE or PPTP, NetBIOS packets cause
unwanted calls. However it may sometimes be necessary to allow
NetBIOS packets to pass through to the WAN in order to find a computer
on the WAN.
Select this to forward NetBIOS packets from the LAN to the WAN and
from the WAN to the LAN. If your firewall is enabled with the default
policy set to block WAN to LAN traffic, you also need to enable the
default WAN to LAN firewall rule that forwards NetBIOS traffic.
Clear this option to block all NetBIOS packets going from the LAN to the
WAN and from the WAN to the LAN.
