Virtual Server:

You can specify which services are visible to outside users. The router detects an incoming

service request and forwards it to the specific local computer for handling. For example, you

can assign a PC in a LAN to act as a Web server inside and expose it to the outside network.

Outside users can browse inside the web server directly while it is protected by NAT. A DMZ

host setting is also provided for local computers exposed to the outside Internet network.

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Client and Server

On a WAN site, the DHCP client obtains an IP address from the Internet Service Provider

(ISP) automatically. On a LAN site, the DHCP server allocates a range of client IP

addresses, including subnet masks and DNS IP addresses and distributes them to local

computers. This provides an easy way to manage the local IP network.

Rich Packet Filtering

This feature filters the packet based on IP addresses as well as Port numbers. Filtering

packets to and from the Internet provides a higher level of security control.

Web-based GUI

A web-based GUI offers easy configuration and management. It also supports remote

management capability for remote users to configure and manage this product.

Firmware Upgradeable

You can upgrade the router with the latest firmware through its web-based GUI.
