Chapter 4: Advanced Configuration

Bimap rules can be used to provide external access to a LAN device. They do not provide the same level of

security as rdr rules, because rdr rules also reroute incoming packets based on the port ID. Bimap rules do

not account for the port number, and therefore allow external access regardless of the destination port

type specified in the incoming packet.
1. On

the

NAT Rule - Add

page, select BIMAP from the Rule Flavor drop-down list.

2. Define the rule ID and select the interface.
3. In

the

Local Address field, type the private IP address of the computer to which you are granting

external access.

4. In

the

Global Address field, type the address that you want to serve as the publicly known address

for the LAN computer.

5. Complete as described for general procedure (steps 6 to 10).

The pass rule: Allowing specific addresses to pass through untranslated

You can create a pass rule to allow a range of IP addresses to remain untranslated when another rule

would otherwise do so.
1. On

the

NAT Rule - Add

page, select PASS from the Rule Flavor drop-down list.

2. Define the rule ID and select the interface.

The pass rule must be assigned a rule ID that is a lower number than the ID assigned to the rule it is

intended to pass. In you want a specific IP address or range of addresses to not be subject to an

existing rule, say rule ID #5, then you can create a pass rule with ID #1 through 4.

3. In

the

Local Address From/To fields, type the lowest and highest IP addresses that define the range

of private address you want to be passed without translation.
If you want the pass rule to act on only one address, type that address in both fields.

4. Complete as described for general procedure (steps 6 to 10).
