IP Address Pool
A dynamic IP start address may be specified by the user, e.g. 10.1.10.1 (default value). Once

this start IP address has been assigned, IP addresses running from 10.1.10.10 to 10.1.10.199
will be part of the dynamic IP address pool. IP addresses from 10.1.10.200 to 10.1.10.253 will

be available as static IP addresses.

Note: Do not to include the address of the EZ Connect™ Wireless Cable Modem Gateway
(10.1.10.1 – default IP) in the client address pool.


6.6 | NAT

Network Address Translation (NAT) allows multiple users at your local site to access the
Internet through a single public IP address.


6.6.1 | Port Forwarding

The Wireless Cable Modem Gateway has a built-in virtual server for port forwarding. You can
configure this feature to redirect the external service request to the appropriate internal

server and port.

For example, if you are running a WEB server, you can configure all traffic on port 80 to be
redirected to the IP address of the WEB server running on your network.


To access the Port Forwarding configuration page, on the Side Navigation bar, click on [NAT]

link and then click on the [Port Forwarding] link.

This Virtual Server function supports 2 types of Services:

• Predefined Service
• Customer Service
