4 NAT

NAT (Network Address Translation - NAT, RFC 1631) means the translation of an IP address in one network to
a different IP address in another. For example, you could translate one public IP address to multiple private IP
addresses on your LAN (SUA Only).

5 Firewall

The firewall is already enabled by default on the Prestige.

Click
Advanced
Setup
and
then NAT to
open the
NAT-Mode
screen.
Select SUA
Only
if you
have one public IP address and Full Feature if
you have multiple public IP addresses (for
address translation).

If you have
servers on your
LAN, configure
an SUA server
set to have
them visible to
the outside.
From the NAT -
Mode
screen
click Edit
Details
and fill
in the fields as
shown.

Click Advanced Setup and
then Firewall to open the
firewall screen. The firewall
protects your LAN from
attacks from the Internet. No
traffic can enter your LAN
unless a request was
generated on the LAN first.

Click Default
Policy
to see
rule direction
information.
You can also
disable the
firewall here
if you want.
