Mapped Ip - LevelOne FBR-2000 User Manual

Mapped IP

Internal private IP addresses are translated through NAT (Network Address Translation). If a
server is located in the LAN network, it has a private IP address, and outside users cannot
connect directly to LAN servers‟ private IP address. To connect to a LAN network server,
outside users have to first connect to a real IP address of the WAN 1/2 network, and the real
IP is translated to a private IP of the LAN network. Mapped IP and Virtual Server are the two
methods to translate the real IP into private IP. Mapped IP maps IP in one-to-one fashion;
that means, all services of one real WAN 1/2 IP address is mapped to one private LAN IP
address.
