15.6 Static NAT


In the Firewall Settings screen, select Static NAT from the submenu options displayed at the left of the screen. A
warning screen will display the following message:

Any changes made in this section may affect your device’s performance and configuration.
Do you want to proceed?


Click Yes to proceed.


15.6.1 Enabling Static NAT


If you clicked Yes in the warning screen, the following Static NAT screen will appear. The Static NAT screen
allows you to configure your Router to work with the special NAT services. When the Router is configured for
Static NAT, any unsolicited packets arriving at the WAN will be forwarded to the selected device. This feature can
be used when you want to host a server for a specific application.

IMPORTANT:
Static NAT and DMZ Host are mutually exclusive features. Before you enable static NAT, confirm that DMZ Host
is disabled. If needed, refer to section 15.4.2 for details on disabling DMZ Host.
