being visible to the WAN. For example, pings to the WAN IP
address are not returned

Checking this box allows applications that use IPSec (IP
Security) to pass through the firewall

Checking this box allows applications that use Point to Point
Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) to pass through the firewall
Remote Config
Management
Checking this box enables Remote Configuration
Management that allows the user or network operator to
view and/or modify the gateway set-up parameters from a
location on the WAN, as opposed to the LAN side of the
gateway. Access to the set-up parameters is obtained by
using the password to access the WebWizard.
Enable this feature by checking the
Remote Config
Management
box on the Setup Advanced Settings - Options
page. To access your gateway from a remote location, you
must also know the WAN IP address of the gateway. To find
the WAN IP address, go to the Network Configuration page
under Basic Settings. You will find the gateway's WAN IP
address list on this page.
Enter the WAN IP address of your gateway into the address
field of any Web browser using the following format:
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8080 where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
represents the WAN IP address of your gateway.
Be sure to follow the syntax exactly, and then click Go or
press Enter. Your gateway Web pages will appear on the
remote computer. You will still need to enter your password
to access the Setup pages of your gateway
Note:
If you choose to enable (check) this feature, be sure to
set up a user password to prevent unauthorized access to
your gateway settings.
Multicast Enable

side through to the private network
