10.6 Address Mapping
Note: The Address Mapping screen is available only when you select Full Feature
in the NAT > General screen.
Ordering your rules is important because the ZyXEL Device applies the rules in the order that
you specify. When a rule matches the current packet, the ZyXEL Device takes the
corresponding action and the remaining rules are ignored. If there are any empty rules before
your new configured rule, your configured rule will be pushed up by that number of empty
rules. For example, if you have already configured rules 1 to 6 in your current set and now you
configure rule number 9. In the set summary screen, the new rule will be rule 7, not 9. Now if
you delete rule 4, rules 5 to 7 will be pushed up by 1 rule, so old rules 5, 6 and 7 become new
rules 4, 5 and 6.
To change your ZyXEL Device’s address mapping settings, click Network > NAT > Address
Mapping to open the following screen.

LABEL DESCRIPTION
# This is the rule index number.
Local Start IP This is the starting Inside Local IP Address (ILA). Local IP addresses are N/A for
Server port mapping.
Local End IP This is the end Inside Local IP Address (ILA). If the rule is for all local IP addresses,
then this field displays 0.0.0.0 as the Local Start IP address and 255.255.255.255
as the Local End IP address. This field is N/A for One-to-one and Server mapping
types.
Global Start IP This is the starting Inside Global IP Address (IGA). Enter 0.0.0.0 here if you have a
dynamic IP address from your ISP. You can only do this for Many-to-One and
Server mapping types.

Many-to-One and Server mapping types.
