Configuring Network Settings

This section contains details for configuring network-related information. The network settings options are

shortest distance between two points on the network based on the addresses of the
originating devices.
Port Forwarding Control WAN-side access to LAN-side servers through private IP addressing.
UPnP Configure and control UPnP interoperability and security.
Bridge Mode Configure the Router as a true WAN/LAN bridge.
