Field Name
Description
Options
Use this link to enable or disable advanced features on your
network
IP Address Filtering
Use this link to configure IP address filters. These filters
prevent designated IP addresses from accessing the Internet
MAC Address Filtering
Use this link to configure MAC address filters. These filters
prevent designated MAC addresses from accessing the Internet
Port Filtering
Use this link to configure transmission control protocol (TCP)
and user datagram protocol (UDP) port filters. These filters
prevent a range of TCP/UDP ports from accessing the Internet
Port Forwarding
Use this link to configure port forwarding for local IP
addresses. Port forwarding allows you to run a server on the
local area network (LAN) by specifying the mapping of
TCP/UDP ports to local PCs or to the IP address of other
devices. This is a static setting that holds the ports open at all
times
Port Triggers
Use this link to configure TCP/UDP port triggers. Port
triggering is similar to port forwarding, but is a dynamic
function. In other words, the ports are not held open, and the
ports close if no outgoing data is detected on the selected ports
for a period of 10 minutes
