Applications
Many advanced networking features are provided by the Router:
•
Wireless and Wired LAN
The Router provides connectivity to 10/100 Mbps devices, and
wireless IEEE 802.11b/g compatible devices, making it easy to create
a network in small offices or homes.
•
Internet Access
This device supports Internet access through an ADSL connection.
Since many DSL providers use PPPoE or PPPoA to establish
communications with end users, the Router includes built-in clients
for these protocols, eliminating the need to install these services on
your computer.
•
Shared IP Address
The Router provides Internet access for up to 253 users via a single
shared IP address. Using only one ISP account, multiple users on your
network can access the Internet at the same time.
•
Virtual Server
If you have a fixed IP address, you can set the Router to act as a virtual
host for network address translation. Remote users access various
services at your site using a constant IP address. Then, depending on
the requested service (or port number), the Router can route the
request to the appropriate server (at another internal IP address). This
secures your network from direct attack by hackers, and provides
more flexible management by allowing you to change internal IP
addresses without affecting outside access to your network.
