Virtual
Server/DMZ
Open access to your computer by creating a
virtual server or a DMZ (Demilitarized
Zone). By default, your modem uses NAT
(Network Address Translation) to hide your
networked computers from users on the
Internet. However, there are times when you
may want to give outside access to the
computers in your network. If so, you can set
up a virtual server or DMZ to allow outside
users access to a computer on your network.
You may want to allow access, for example,
if a LAN computer is hosting Internet games
or running a Web server.
PPP Half
Bridge
Share the public IP address assigned by your
ISP with a single PC on the LAN. This
avoids problems caused by certain
applications having to work through NAT
(such as online games or FTP servers) and
avoids the need to run a PPP software stack
on the PC.
UPnP
(Universal Plug
and Play)
Connect automatically with other UPnP-
enabled software and hardware. The
Internet Gateway Device (IGD) protocol
makes it possible for applications running on
the network to automatically configure NAT
routing.
Per Port PVC Assign an Ethernet port to a Permanent
Virtual Circuit (PVC). This feature is
commonly used for delivering video.
Port Settings Conveniently change the default port
settings. You will need to use this feature if
the X6v is hosting a web or Telnet server.
MAC
Filtering
Prevent network devices with the specified
MAC addresses from accessing the Internet.
Management
Control
Enable or deny access to X6v services –
HTTP, Telnet, SNMP – to local network
devices and/or remote users.
