incoming service request and forward it to the specific local computer to handle it. For example, user can
assign a PC in LAN acting as WEB server inside and expose it to the outside network. Outside user can
browse inside web server directly while it is protected by NAT. A DMZ host setting is also provided to a
local computer exposed to the outside network, Internet.

Service (DoS) attack. The URL-blocking, packet filtering and SPI are also supported. The hacker’s attack

added continually, please visit our web site to download latest firmware.
