checkbox to disable all firewall

functions on the

. This includes firewall filters, NAT, VPN,

content filtering, and subnet access. Disabling the

AP-5131

firewall makes the

vulnerable to data attacks and is not

recommended during normal operation if using the WAN port.

NAT Timeout

Network Address Translation (NAT) converts an IP address in one
network to a different IP address or set of IP addresses in a
different network. Set a

NAT Timeout

interval (in minutes) the

AP-5131

uses to terminate the IP address translation process if no

translation activity is detected after the specified interval.
