3. Other Settings
3.1.NAT and Port Forwarding
Network Address Translation (NAT) is a way to map an entire network (or networks) to a single
IP address. NAT allows multiple clients in your local network to access the Internet through
a single global IP address assigned to you by your Internet service provider.NAT is commonly
used together with Port Forwarding. "Port Forwarding" is used in order for a host outside your
local network to access a machine on your local network.
To enable Port Forwarding on a port, go to the "NAT" menu on the left menu bar of the Web
interface of your router and click "Port Forwarding".
In the window that appears;
 In the "Application" field, assign a name for the Port Forwarding rule you are creating.
 Enter the local IP address of the client that is to be accessible from the Internet in the
"Target IP Address" field.
 Select the protocol that the application uses from the list of protocols in the "Protocol"
box. If you are unsure of the protocol, select "TCP&UDP".
 Enter the real port number used by the application in the "Wan Ports" field.
 Enter the local port number for the application in the "Target LAN Ports" field. (can be the
same as the Real Port)
 To forward a range of ports instead of a single port, use a dash (-) sign in between. For
example to forward all ports between 23 and 80, enter "23-80".
 Check the "Enable" box.
Click "Save".

3.2. FIREWALL Settings
A firewall prevents unauthorized Internet users from accessing your local network and your
computer.
AirTies Firewall has SPI, Stateful Packet Inspection, feature. SPI monitors the protocol and
packet addresses being received to determine if the information should be passed through
the firewall to the connected computers. The Internet addresses that are a source of malicious
attacks are permanently blocked from accessing your network.
You can also limit or block the Internet access of any local user by defining advanced rules
for Internet access. Firewall is activated by default.
The following sections describe the submenus under the FIREWALL menu of the web interface.
3.2.1. Access Contro
You can allow or block Internet access for any computer on your local network through the
Access Control feature. These access restrictions can be based on IP address as well as AC
address. Access Control is activated by default.
Click "New" to define a new access rule.
In the window that appears:
 Enter a name for the access rule you would like to define in the "Rule Name" field. Choose
a name that is easy to remember.
 In the "Select Client" section enter the IP or AC addresses of the clients whose access
you would like to restrict with this rule. Click the "Add" button next to AC Address or IP
Range.
Access control can be defined based on local IP or AC address (uniquely identifies the
network adapter of the device). If an access rule is defined by AC address, the rule defined
for the device will be valid even if the local IP address changes.
10
AirTies RT-111 User anual

It is possible to enter the AC or IP addresses manually or choose them from the list of client
devices in the local network.
Enter the AC address of the device you'd like to restrict traffic from in "New AC Address"
or IP address of the device in the "New IP Range" field. For a single IP address, enter the same
value in the two boxes that define the range. (e.g. 192.168.2.2 and 192.168.2.2). To restrict
access for all devices in an IP address range, enter the beginning and ending IP addresses
(e.g. 192.168.2.2 and 192.168.2.50).
 In the "Select Application" section, specify the applications you would like to restrict access
to for the clients you have specified in the "Select Client" section. You can select the
application from the "Existing Applications" list and click "Add".
 You can go to the Applications menu to add a new application to the "Existing Applications"
ist.

3.2.3. MAC Address Fi tering
AC Address Filtering allows you to permit network access based on AC addresses. When
this feature is activated, you can specify the AC addresses of the computers that will be
allowed access to the Internet.
 Check the "Activate AC Address Filtering" box.
 Enter a new AC address or choose one from the list of clients and click "Add".
 Click "Save".
3.2.4. Web Fi ters
Web Filters feature can block some possibly risky web based applications and web browser
features that are open to abuse before they reach the computers in your network. For
example, cookies can reveal personal information that you may enter at a website. You
can deal with these kinds of vulnerabilities at the router level.
In the "Web Filters" window, check the corresponding "Filter On" box for each web application
or browser feature you would like to block (proxy, cookie, java applet, activeX, pop-up).

3.2.5. URL Fi ters
You can block access of any computer in your local network to the websites you specify.
In this window, you can enter the URL or any keyword that is part of a URL of the websites

To block access of a computer in your local network using URL filters, check "Http with URL
Filters" box for the rule that you created for this computer in the "Access Control" page.

AirTies RT-111 User anual

3.2.6. DMZ
The De ilitarized Zone (D Z) feature opens up all the ports of a single local network host
for unrestricted access from the Internet. Although it's a risky method, you can open and
forward all the ports for a certain client at once with D Z to resolve access problems resulting
from firewall or NAT settings.
WARNING: It is not recommended to keep all the ports open for any client for an extended
period.
To enable D Z, check the "Activate DMZ" box; enter the local IP address of the client that
you would like traffic to be forwarded to in the "Select LAN IP Address" field and click "Save".
3.2.7. Anti-DoS
The Anti-DOS feature prevents "Denial of Service" attacks that aim to disable your router by
flooding it with connection requests. In this window, you can set the maximum number of
connections that will be allowed from the Internet for a specified time interval for each
protocol.
