7.5 Configuring NAT Service (optional)


The Westell Dual Connect Router features Network Address Translation (NAT), which supports protocols for
applications, games and VPN-specific programs. To use an application that utilizes NAT protocol, you must
configure your Router’s NAT settings. Select Service Configuration from the Configuration menu.

NOTE: Westell has developed an extensive list of NAT services and you may select any service from this list. By
selecting your specific NAT service and setting up a NAT profile, you will ensure that the appropriate ports on your
Router are open and that the required application traffic can pass through your LAN. For a list of supported NAT
services, go to section 9.8 (NAT Services).

This screen allows you to attach a predefined NAT service to your default profile. Once you have selected a NAT
service from the Service Name pull-down arrow, click on enable.



If you clicked on enable, the following Host Service pop-up screen will be displayed. Click on OK. This will load
the new NAT Configuration and the settings will be saved automatically.
