IP Setup and Network Address Translation 9-7

Internal users can access the Internet as they always do; the external Internet, however, views all traffic from
the internal network as originating from 192.168.100.6 and all traffic your network receives is addressed to
192.168.100.6.

When an IP client such as a Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Internet Explorer wants to establish a session with
an IP ser ver such as a Web ser ver, the client machine must know the IP address to use and the TCP ser vice
por t where the traffic is to be directed.

For example, a Web browser locates a Web ser ver by using a combination of the IP address and TCP por t that
the client machine has set up.

Just as an IP address specifies a par ticular computer on a network, por ts are addresses that specify a
par ticular ser vice in a computer. There are many universally agreed-upon por ts assigned to various ser vices.
For example:

Web ser vers typically use por t number 80

All FTP ser vers use por t number 21

Telnet uses por t number 23

SNMP uses por t number 161

To help direct incoming IP traffic to the appropriate ser ver, the Netopia R5000 Series Router lets you associate
these and other por t numbers with distinct IP addresses on your internal LAN using the feature called expor ted
ser vices. See

“IP setup” on page 9-12

for details.
