5.3 DDNS

Dynamic DNS or DDNS is a method of updating, in real time, a Domain Name

System (DNS) to point to a changing IP address on the Internet. This is used

to provide a persistent domain name for a resource that may change location on the network.

1、Mostly, broadband ISP (Internet service provider) only provide client with

Dynamic IP address. While DDNS knows every change on IP address and

Banding it with well-known name, so others users can use well-known name to communicate with the client. 2、DDNS can help you setup virtual server in your company or home.  Service Provider: Select the DDNS service provider you are using,

support no-ip.com, dyndns.com

 User Name: Enter the DDNS user name registered with your DDNS

service provider.

 Password: Enter the DDNS Password registered with your DDNS service

provider.

 Domain Name: Enter the DDNS domain name with your DDNS service

provider.

For example: If you have registered a DDNS service from no-ip.com for a web server on the host at 192.168.2.10 and get below info:

Wireless N150 Outdoor Long Range AP/Router

First set a mapping rule on Virtual Server interface (For details, see Virtual Server section) and then enter the registered user name, password and

domain name as shown below:

Then Click Save to save the settings. Simply input "http://tenda.zapto.org" in a launched web browser and your

5.4 Virtual Server

Defines the mapping between the service port range of WAN access and LAN

server, all of the WAN ports used within the scope of access will be

re-positioned to the LAN network server specified by IP address.

 Ext Port-Int Port: WAN service port. Internal LAN PC port

corresponding mapped to an external port.

 Private IP: The IP address of a computer used as a server in LAN.  Protocol: Includes TCP, UDP and Both. Select “Both” if you are

not sure about which protocol to use.

 Enable: The corresponding entry takes effect only if you.  checked this option.  Delete: Clear all settings of this item.  Common Service Port: The well-known protocol ports are listed

Wireless N150 Outdoor Long Range AP/Router

in the drop-down list. Select one and select a sequence number in the ID drop-down list and then click “Add”, this port will be added

automatically to the ID list. For other well-known service ports that are not listed, you can manually add them to the list.

 Add to: Add the selected well-known port to the policy ID.

For Example: you can build a WEB server on your computer and set the router’s port range forwarding to enable your friends to access to your

computer. Suppose that your WEB server or your computer’s static IP address

is 192.168.2.100, and you wish your friends can access the server through the default port 80 and adopts TCP protocol.

Wireless N150 Outdoor Long Range AP/Router

Notice: If you set the service port of the virtual server as 80, you must set the Web Management port on Remote Web Management screen to be any value

except 80 such as 8080. Otherwise, there will be a conflict to disable the

virtual server.

5.5 DMZ Host

The DMZ Settings screen allows one local computer to be exposed to the

Internet for use of a special-purpose service such as Internet gaming or

videoconferencing. DMZ hosting forwards all the ports at the same time to one PC.

 DMZ Host IP: The IP address of the LAN computer you want to

set as DMZ host.

 Enable: Check to enable the DMZ host.

For example:

Set the computer at the IP address of 192.168.2.10 as DMZ host to connect another host on the Internet for intercommunication.

Wireless N150 Outdoor Long Range AP/Router

Notice: When the DMZ host is enabled, the firewall settings of the DMZ host will not function.

5.6 UPnP

With the UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) function, the internal host can request the router to process some special port switching so as to enable the

external host to visit the resources of the internal host. UPnP works in Windows XP, Windows ME or later (Note: Operational system

needs to be integrated with or installed with DirectX 9.0) or in an environment

with installed application software that supports UPnP.

Enable UPnP: Click the checkbox to enable the UPnP.

5.7 Routing Table

This page shows the router’s core routing table.

The main duty for a router is to look for a best path for every data packet, and

transfer this data packet to a destination station. In order to fulfill this function, many transferring paths, i.e. routing table, are saved in the router,

for choosing when needed.

5.8 Static Routing

This page is used to set the router’s static routing under router mode. Click

Add, the following page you will see.

 Destination Network: The destination host or IP segment you

visit.

 Subnet Mask: Enter the subnet mask, generally it is

255.255.255.0

 Getaway: The entry IP address of the next router.  Interface: If destination need go through WAN port, then set it as

WAN. Otherwise, set it as LAN.
