10.9  APAS
Any Port Any Service (APAS) allows a LAN device to use any available port to access any available 
service from a remote WAN device. Typically, a LAN device, such as a Set Top Box (STB), would have to 
use a specific port to access video streams from a video server. With APAS, the video streams only need 
to be received through the specified Bridge WAN interface for the LAN device specified in the APAS 
rule. You can connect the LAN device to any LAN port. Other LAN devices can access the Internet using 
the default gateway.
Unlike Port Forwarding, which forwards traffic based on port numbers, you do not need to know the port 
number for the video traffic from the IPTV server. You just select the LAN device host name or enter its 
MAC address and select a Bridge WAN interface.
Use the wildcard '*' for a range of MAC addresses for multiple LAN devices. For example, enter 
00:13:49:*:*:* for all LAN devices from a vendor with the MAC OUI 00:13:49. (range). Any device with that 
MAC OUI aa:bb:cc connected to any LAN port on the Zyxel Device can access services or can be 
accessed for services through the specified Bridge WAN interface. For example, the LAN device could 
be an STB receiving video streams from a video server, or it could be a server, allowing access to it 
through the specified Bridge WAN interface.
