¾ Enable NAT: This technology translates the IP addresses of a local area network to a
different IP address for the Internet. If this Router is hosting your network’s connection to the
Internet, please select the check box. If another Router exists in your network, you don’t need
to select the option.
¾ Enable Firewall: A firewall enhances network’s security. Select the option to use a firewall,
or else without a firewall.
¾ Enable IGMP Multicast: This is disabled by default. This setting will not allow IGMP (Internet
Group Management Protocol) packets to be forwarded to the LAN. IGMP is used to manage
multicasting on TCP/IP networks. Most users will not need to enable this. Some ISPs use
IGMP to perform remote configuration for client devices, such as the Router. If you are
unsure, check with your ISP.
¾ Enable WAN Service: If you want to adopt the MER service, you have to select the option in
the screen above, or else the service will not take effect.
¾ service name: You can enter the service name in the text box or leave the default name.
Note:
If you select the NAT and Security check box on the screen (shown in Figure 5-11), the NAT and
Security menu will be added to the Web-based Utility. We will describe the detailed configuration
