including:

Web-Based Management - DIR-120 is configurable through any network computer’s web browser using Netscape or Internet Explorer.

Port Forwarding Supported - Enables you to expose WWW, FTP and other services on your LAN to be accessible to Internet users.

allow an application to function correctly.
