2 ) Enter the IP address (in dotted-decimal notation) which you want to reserve for

the client.

3 ) Leave the status as Enabled.

4 ) Click Save.

4. 6. Forwarding

The router’s NAT (Network Address Translation) feature makes the devices in the LAN

use the same public IP address to communicate in the Internet, which protects the

local network by hiding IP addresses of the devices. However, it also brings about the

problem that external hosts cannot initiatively communicate with the specified devices

in the local network.

With the forwarding feature, the router can traverse the isolation of NAT so that clients

on the Internet can reach devices in the LAN and realize some specific functions.

The TP-LINK router includes four forwarding rules. If two or more rules are set, the

priority of implementation from high to low is Virtual Servers, Port Triggering, UPNP

and DMZ.

4. 6. 1. Virtual Servers

When you build up a server in the local network and want to share it on the Internet,

Virtual Servers can realize the service and provide it to Internet users. At the same time

virtual servers can keep the local network safe as other services are still invisible from

the Internet.

Virtual Servers can be used to set up public services in your local network, such as HTTP,

FTP, DNS, POP3/SMTP and Telnet. Different service uses different service port. Port 80

Картинка с сайта: manual-pdf.com

36

Chapter 4 Congure

is used in HTTP service, port 21 in FTP service, port 25 in SMTP service and port 110 in

POP3 service. Please verify the service port number before the configuration.

Share my personal website I’ve built in local network with my

friends through the Internet.

For example, the personal website has been built in my home

PC (192.168.0.100). I hope that my friends in the Internet can

visit my website in some way. My PC is connected to the router

with the WAN IP address 218.18.232.154.

1. Set your PC to a static IP address, for example 192.168.0.100.

2. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the username and

password you set for the router.

3. Go to Forwarding > Virtual Servers.

4. Click Add New. Select HTTP from the Common Service

Port list. The service port, internal port and protocol will be

automatically filled with contents. Enter the PC’s IP address

192.168.0.100 in the IP Address field.

5. Leave the status as Enabled and click Save.

Note:

• It is recommended to keep the default settings of Internal Port and Protocol if

you are not clear about which port and protocol to use.

• If the service you want to use is not in the Common Service Port list, you can enter

the corresponding parameters manually. You should verify the port number that

the service needs.

• You can add multiple virtual server rules if you want to provide several services in

a router. Please note that the Service Port should not be overlapped.

Users in the Internet can enter http:// WAN IP (in this example:

I want to:

http:// 218.18.232.154) to visit your personal website.

Note:

If you have changed the default Service Port, you should use http:// WAN IP: Service

Port to visit the website.

4. 6. 2. Port Triggering

Port triggering can specify a triggering port and its corresponding external ports.

When a host in the local network initiates a connection to the triggering port, all the

external ports will be opened for subsequent connections. The router can record the IP

address of the host. When the data from the Internet return to the external ports, the

router can forward them to the corresponding host. Port triggering is mainly applied

to online games, VoIPs and video players. Common applications include MSN Gaming

Zone, Dialpad and Quick Time 4 players, etc.

Follow the steps below to configure the port triggering rules:

1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the username and password you set for

the router.

2. Go to Forwarding > Port Triggering.

3. Click Add New. Select the desired application from the Common Applications list.

The trigger port amd incoming ports will be automatically filled with contents. The

following picture takes application MSN Gaming Zone as an example.

4. Leave the status as Enabled and click Save.

Note:

• You can add multiple port triggering rules according to your network need.

• The triggering ports can not be overlapped.

• If the application you need is not listed in the Common Applications list, please enter the parameters manually.

You should verify the incoming ports the application uses first and enter them in Incoming Ports field. You can

input at most 5 groups of ports (or port sections). Every group of ports must be set apart with “,”. For example,

2000-2038, 2050-2051, 2085, 3010-3030.

Картинка с сайта: manual-pdf.com

Chapter 4 Congure

4. 6. 3. DMZ

When a PC is set to be a DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) host in the local network, it is totally

exposed to the Internet, which can realize the unlimited bidirectional communication

between internal hosts and external hosts. The DMZ host becomes a virtual server with

all ports opened. When you are not clear about which ports to open in some special

applications, such as IP camera and database software, you can set the PC to be a DMZ

host.

Note:

DMZ is more applicable in the situation that users are not clear about which ports to open. When it is enabled, the

DMZ host is totally exposed to the Internet, which may bring some potential safety hazard. If DMZ is not in use,

please disable it in time.

Make the home PC join the Internet online game without port

restriction.

For example, due to some port restriction, when playing the

online games, you can login normally but cannot join a team

with other players. To solve this problem, set your PC as a DMZ

with all ports opened.

1. Assign a static IP address to your PC, for example

192.168.0.100.

2. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the username and

password you set for the router.

3. Go to Forwarding > DMZ.

4. Select Enable and enter the IP address 192.168.0.100 in the

DMZ Host IP Address filed.

5. Click Save.

You’ve set your PC to a DMZ host and now you can make a team

to game with other players.

4. 6. 4. UPnP

The UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) protocol allows the applications or host devices

to automatically find the front-end NAT device and send request to it to open the

corresponding ports. With UPnP enabled, the applications or host devices in the

both sides of the NAT device can freely communicate with each other realizing the

I want to:

Chapter 4 Congure

seamless connection of the network. You may need to enable the UPnP if you want

to use applications for multiplayer gaming, peer-to-peer connections, real-time

communication (such as VoIP or telephone conference) or remote assistance, etc.

Tips:

• UPnP is enabled by default in this router.

• Only the application supporting UPnP protocol can use this feature.

• UPnP feature needs the support of operating system (e.g. Windows Vista/ Windows 7/ Windows 8, etc. Some of

operating system need to install the UPnP components).

For example, when you connect your Xbox to the router which is connected to the

Internet to play online games, UPnP will send request to the router to open the

corresponding ports allowing the following data penetrating the NAT to transmit.

Therefore, you can play Xbox online games without a hitch.
