This screen allows you to change some advanced settings: 

•  NAT – NAT (Network Address Translation) is the technology which allows a number of LAN PCs 

to share one (1) Internet IP address. These settings rarely need to be changed. 

•  Remote Access Configuration – This feature allows you to manage the Load Balancer via the 

Internet. You can restrict access to a specified IP address or address range. 

•  External Filters Configuration – These settings determine whether or not the Load Balancer 

should respond to ICMP (ping) requests received from the WAN port. 

•  Interface Binding – Use these to ensure that certain traffic is sent by a particular WAN port, and 

thereby a particular ISP account. These settings are only useful if using both WAN ports. 

Protocol & Port Binding  – This allows you binding WAN1 or WAN2 ports by selecting TCP/UDP 
protocol. 

 

•  NAT Routing – NAT (Network Address Translation) is the technology which 

allows one (1) WAN (Internet) IP address to be used by many LAN users. 

•  If you disable NAT, Internet access is only possible if all PCs are 

configured with valid Internet IP addresses. (The Load Balancer needs 2 
addresses, 1 for the LAN port, and 1 for the WAN port.)  

•  Generally, NAT is disabled only when you wish to use the  Load Balancer 

as a Static Router. 

•  TCP Timeout – Enter the desired value to use on both WAN ports. The 

default is 300.  

•  UDP Timeout – Enter the desired value to use on both WAN ports. The 

default is 120. 

•  TCP Window Limit – Enter the desired value to use on both WAN ports. The 

default is 0 (no limit). 

•  TCP MSS Limit – Enter the required MSS (Maximum Segment Size) to use 

on both WAN ports. The default is 0 (no limit)., 

•  Disable Port Translation – Enter the desired port range of all packets which 

aren’t translated via WAN port.
