Forwarding Rules

The Forwarding Rules page allows you to configure the port forwarding management on the unit. Click on any

of the menu on the left to access the respective setting page.

Forwarding rules is a necessary feature because NAT (Network Address Translation) always block incoming

traffic from the Internet to the LAN if a specific port mapping does not exists in the NAT translation table.

Because of this, the NAT provides a level of protection for computers that are connected to your LAN.

However, this also creates a connectivity problem when you want to make LAN resources available to Internet

clients, which you may want to do to play network games or host network applications.

There are three ways to work around NAT and to enable certain LAN resources available from the Internet; Port

Forwarding (in Virtual Server page), Port Triggering (in Special AP page) and DMZ Host (in Miscellaneous page).
