Packet Filters > DNAT Configuration
Destination Network Address Translation (DNAT) is a process that allows the placing of servers within the protected
network and making them available for a certain service to the outside world. The DNAT process running of the
wireless modem/router translates the destination address of incoming packets to the address of the real network
server on the LAN. The packets are then forwarded.
You can Delete or Edit a DNAT rule after it has been defined and added by using the table at the bottom of the
screen.
Important Note:
When adding rules, at least one host must be defined in the Network Configuration section.
