Async Port

The Async Port can be configured to provide either

IP Routing or Remote Access. IP Routing is used

to connect your network to another router through the Serial async port. Remote Access allows remote
users to dial-in to the device to access and share network resources as if they were logged on to the
network locally.

1.

To configure the RF500S for IP Routing, select IP Routing in the

Async Port section of the

General Settings dialog box.

2.

Click PPP Settings.

3.

The IP Routing Settings dialog box displays.

IP Routing (NAT Enabled):

If NAT is enabled, all local users will be firewall protected and will share one IP address through
the Async port. Enter values in the fields as described:
