• LAN Client Filter LAN Client Filters: The filter mode is based on the IP address of the client’ s computers. Enter the following information: Label Description LAN IP Address Range The range of IP addresses of the LAN machines from which packets will be affected. Protocol Select TCP or UDP. For example, if FTP services shall be blocked, then select TCP. Destination Port Range Specifies the start and the end of the Port range that shall be blocked. For example, 21 ~ 21 blocks FTP services. Clients cannot access any application from this port. From Day / To Day Select the days of the week this filter shall apply. From Hour / To Hour Select the hours of the day this filter shall apply. Wireless Broadband Router User Manual Enabled Check this option to enable this setting and remember to click Apply to save and activate the changes. LAN MAC Filter demands higher priority than LAN Client Filter. Note Figure 4-16 Filters 4.9 Forwarding (Router Mode Only) This page allows you to configure the Forwarding feature. Unlike Filter, which governs outgoing traffic, Forwarding is used to control external access to the local network. This is commonly used when you have publicly accessible virtual servers on your local network. By default, forwarding entry is empty and any external access to your LAN is blocked. Once you define a forwarding entry, incoming packets (identified by its port number) that match your Forwarding criteria will be forwarded to the port range of the specified local machine. Otherwise packets are blocked. Forwarding serves as a Wireless Broadband Router User Manual measure of security that protects your network from hazardous packets. However, if you designate a DMZ (De-Militarized Zone) IP Address, incoming packets that do not match the forwarding criteria will be redirected to the DMZ IP address. That is, forwarding demands a higher priority than DMZ. • DMZ IP Address DMZ allows specifying a local machine to be exposed to the Internet. If you specify a DMZ host here, the incoming packets containing no port information specified in the Forwarding table are forwarded to the DMZ host. • Port Forwards Define the port range for the incoming TCP/UDP service you want to forward to a specific computer on the LAN side. Item Description Protocol Specifies the incoming packet protocol. TCP or UDP WAN Port Start/End Enter the port range for the incoming request you want to forward. LAN IP Address Enter the IP address of the virtual server to which packets are forwarded. LAN Port Start/End Enter the port range for the service on the virtual server. Enabled Select this option and click Apply to activate the configuration. • Application Specific Port Forwards Some applications, such as Internet games and videoconferencing, require multiple ports for data transmission. If there is any application that cannot be properly accessed on the private network, you may need to establish application specific port forwarding for that application. Essentially, application specific port forwarding tells Wireless Broadband Router User Manual the Wireless Broadband Router how to direct traffic across networks. Item Description Outbound Protocol Specifies the protocol the application uses. TCP or UDP Outbound Port Start/End Enter the WAN port range from which data that follows that particular protocol should be sent. Inbound Protocol Select the protocol (UDP or TCP) for the port. Inbound Port Start/End Enter the WAN port range from which data that follows that particular protocol will return. To Port Start/End Enter the LAN port range. Enabled Select this option and click Apply to activate the configuration. • Static Routes In this section, the user can define static routes for incoming packets. To define a static route, enter the following information: Item Description IP Address Enter the network address of the destination computer. Subnet Mask Enter the subnet mask of the destination computer’ s network address Gateway Enter the router’ s IP for the destination computer. Metric Enter the number of transmission hops (range 0 ~ 15). Interface Select whether the destination computer is located on the WAN or LAN interface. Wireless Broadband Router User Manual Figure 4-17 Forwarding 5.0 Administration This page allows the administrator to perform the following settings: • System Clock Network administrators may synchronize date and time among network devices by synchronizing the local clock to an available NTP (Network Time Protocol) server. NTP Server: Enter IP address of the NTP server. Up to three entries are allowed. Time Zone: From the drop-down menu, select a time zone according to your geographic location. Wireless Broadband Router User Manual • Management Setup Specifies the username and password that grant the access to the Wireless Broadband Router’ web page. By factory default, the user name is empty and the password is admin. Username: Enter the username (case sensitive). Password/Re-enter Password: Enter the password...
