Add/Edit Port Proxying Rule
Name
: Name your rule.
Enabled
: Toggle whether your rule is enabled. Selected by default.
Use Port Range
: Check this box to create a rule which proxies a contiguous range of ports instead of a single port. The remote port(s) will require the same
number of contiguous ports.
Local Port(s)
: Specify the IP port(s) on the LAN to proxy to a remote computer.
Remote Computer
: Specify the remote computer to receive proxied traffic.
Remote Port(s)
: Specify the IP port (first if a range) on the remote computer to receive proxy traffic.
Protocol
: Select the IP protocol traffic to proxy from the following options in the dropdown menu:
TCP
UDP
TCP & UDP
Click
Submit
to save your completed port proxying rule.
Network Prefix Translation
Network Prefix Translation is used in IPv6 networks to translate one IPv6 prefix to another.
IPv6 prefix translation
is an experimental specification (
RFC 6296
) trying to achieve
address independence similar to NAT in IPv4. Unlike NAT, however, NPT is stateless and preserves the IPv6 principle that each device has a routable public address. But it still
breaks any protocol embedding IPv6 addresses (e.g. IPsec) and is generally not recommended for use by the IETF. NPT can help to keep internal network ranges consistent
across various IPv6 providers, but it cannot be used effectively in all situations.
The primary purpose for CradlePoint’s NPT implementation is for failover/failback and load balancing setups. LAN clients can potentially retain the original IPv6 lease information
and may experience a more seamless transition when WAN connectivity changes than if not utilizing NPT.
Mode
:
None
– No translation is performed
Load Balance Only
– (Default) Only translate networks when actively load balancing
First
– Use the first IPv6 prefix found
Static
– Always use a static IPv6 translation (input the prefix here)
Transitioning from short prefix to a longer prefix (such as from /48 to /64) is not without problems, as some of the LANs may lose IPv6 connectivity.
