By default, the router’s network address translation (NAT) firewall will block unrecognized
incoming packets from the Internet (WAN) to protect internal clients on the LAN and WLAN. To
allow direct external access for specific Internet services, use the Virtual Server capability.

For example, if you have FTP, web and VPN servers on your local network, you could define
them as follows:

Server

ID

Service Port

Server IP

Enable

Using the menus at the bottom of the page, define each server.

1. Select a service from the drop-down menu.
2. Choose a schedule rule. Rule 0 is always on. (Custom rules are defined in Security
