NAT Mapping Settings
LAN Client
NAT mapping rules can be defined for a single LAN
IP Address
, an
IP Range
,
or an
IP Network
.
IP Address
This refers to the LAN host’s private IP address. The system maps this address
to a number of public IP addresses (specified below) in order to facilitate
inbound and outbound traffic. This option is only available when
IP Address
is
selected.
IP Range
The IP range is a contiguous group of private IP addresses used by the LAN
host. The system maps these addresses to a number of public IP addresses
(specified below) to facilitate outbound traffic. This option is only available
when
IP Range
is selected.
IP Network
The IP network refers to all private IP addresses and ranges managed by the
LAN host. The system maps these addresses to a number of public IP
addresses (specified below) to facilitate outbound traffic. This option is only
available when
IP Network
is selected.
Inbound
Mappings
This setting specifies the WAN connections and corresponding WAN-specific
Internet IP addresses on which the system should bind. Any access to the
specified WAN connection(s) and IP address(es) will be forwarded to the LAN
host. This option is only available when
IP Address
is selected in the
LAN
Client(s)
field.
Note that inbound mapping is not needed for WAN connections in drop-in
mode or IP forwarding mode. Also note that each WAN IP address can be
associated to one NAT mapping only.
