DSL-500 ADSL Router User’s Guide


Port redirection is universally enabled or disabled for the Router with the Port Redirection State drop-down
menu. The Existing Entry number tells you how many sets currently are configured. The Valid Entry number
tells you the number of sets that are active.

Index to Set

When adding a new set, choose the Not selected option from the drop-down
menu first. This will automatically add the next available index number to the
new rule. If you are deleting or modifying an existing rule, select it and click
the appropriate button to the right.

Item Name

Assign an appropriate name to the indexed redirection rule, ex. Internet,
email, tftp, etc.

State

Select Enabled to put the set into effect when it is applied. To save a set you
do not want to use now for later use without deleting it you can choose
Disabled.

Protocol

Select the designated TCP or UDP protocol port number or use a well-know
port for the particular protocol packet you wish to redirect.

Internet

Select one of the well-known ports to redirect incoming packets through that
port.

Start Port

For a range of ports, this will be the first port in the range. For a single port
enter the port number.

End Port

For a range of ports, this will be the last port in the range. For a single port
just enter the same port number entered in Start Port.

Local Port

Enter the port number used by the designated host on the LAN or use a well-
known port.

Local Computer

Enter the IP address of the local designated host computer or device.

If you wish to delete or modify an existing rule, select the index number and click the action button for Delete or
Modify. Clicking on the Clear button will set the variables to the blank or default setting.

Each new set that is added will appear in the entry table at the top of the web page. When you have configure all
the redirection sets you want to produce, click on the Apply button. You can save and reboot the system now, or
continue to configure the Router.
