You can activate or deactivate the NAT function (by default the NAT function is acti-
vated).
ì
In the Advanced Settings – Internet menu, select Address Translation (NAT) and
then select the required option.
Port Forwarding
If you configure Port Forwarding, the Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl outwardly assumes the
role of the server. It receives requests from remote users under its public IP address and
automatically redirects them to local PCs. The private IP addresses of the servers on the
local network remain protected.
Internet services are addressed via defined port numbers. The Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl
needs a mapping table of the port numbers to redirect the service requests to the serv-
ers that actually provide the service.
Port Forwarding has been configured for this purpose.
ì
To set up port forwarding for a service, select Port Forwarding from the Advanced
Settings – Internet – Address Translation (NAT) menu.
