Configuring NAT Settings
Use the following screens to set up Network Address Translation (NAT) for the WX-54G.
NAT is a program used to translate an IP address from a private address to a public
address in real time. This allows multiple PCs in a home network to share a single pub-
lic IP address. It also protects the PCs from being accessed from the outside network.
Use the NAT screens to do the following:
•
Configuring the NAT Port Trigger
•
Configuring the NAT Virtual Server
•
Configuring the NAT Virtual Data Management Zone (DMZ)
These are discussed in the following sections.
