Network Address Translation
Network Address Translation (NAT) is designed to allow external devices access the internal devices located
on your Local Area Network (LAN). In addition, it is used to “punch holes” in the Firewall, if it is Enabled. The
system uses three different types of NAT, Virtual Server, Port Triggering and DMZ.
Virtual Server
Allows you to point an external (Class A or B) address directly to an internal (Class C) IP address. This allows
a remote user to enter an external IP Address such as 91.29.62.177, and directly access the internal address
192.168.10.2. This is very important when remote users are trying to access an internal server.
