Configuration & Management
•
Easy Setup.
Use your Web browser from anywhere on the LAN for configuration.
•
Remote Management.
The DSL/Cable Router can be managed from any PC on your
LAN. And, if the Internet connection exists, it can also (optionally) be configured via the
Internet.
•
UPnP Support.
UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) allows automatic discovery and con-
figuration of the DSL/Cable Router. UPnP is by supported by Windows ME, XP, or later.
Security Features
•
Password - protected Configuration
. Optional password protection is provided to
prevent unauthorized users from modifying the configuration data and settings.
•
NAT Protection.
An intrinsic side effect of NAT (Network Address Translation) tech-
nology is that by allowing all LAN users to share a single IP address, the location and even
the existence of each PC is hidden. From the external viewpoint, there is no network, only
a single device - the DSL/Cable Router.
•
Stateful Inspection Firewall.
All incoming data packets are monitored and all incom-
ing server requests are filtered, thus protecting your network from malicious attacks from
external sources.
•
Protection against DoS attacks.
DoS (Denial of Service) attacks can flood your
Internet connection with invalid packets and connection requests, using so much bandwidth
and so many resources that Internet access becomes unavailable. The DSL/Cable Router
incorporates protection against DoS attacks.
