This product’s NAT firewall filters out unrecognized packets to protect your Intranet, so all hosts behind this

product are invisible to the outside world. If you wish, you can make some of them accessible by enabling

the Virtual Server Mapping.

A virtual server is defined as a Service Port, and all requests to this port will be redirected to the computer

specified by the Server IP. Virtual Server can work with Scheduling Rules, and give user more flexibility

on Access control. For Detail, please refer to Scheduling Rule.

host instead.
