HotBrick Network Solutions 

•  Remote Upgrade – If enabled, you can use the supplied Windows program to 

remotely upgrade the Firmware. If not enabled, upgrades must be performed 
by a PC on the LAN. 

•  Remote Web-based setup - – If enabled, access to the Web-based interface 

is available via the Internet. (See below for details.) If not enabled, access is 
only available to PCs on the LAN. 

•  Port – The port number used when connecting remotely. See below for 

details. 

•  Allowed IP range – Remote access is only available to the IP addresses 

entered here. 

•  Leaving these fields blank will allow access by all PCs. 
•  These addresses must be Internet IP addresses, not addresses on the 

local LAN. 

•  To specify a single address, enter it in both fields. 

•  IDENT Port – Port 113 is associated with the Internet's (Identification / 

Authentication) service. When a client program in your computer contacts a 
remote server for services such as POP, IMAP, SMTP, that remote server 
sends back a query to the "Ident" server running in many systems listening for 
these queries on port 113. This means that port 113 is often probed by 
attackers as a rich source of your personal information. By default it is 
“Disable”. 

 

These settings determine whether or not the Load Balancer should respond to 
ICMP (ping) requests received from the WAN port. 

•  Block Selected packet types – This acts as "master" switch. If checked, the 

selected packet types are blocked. Otherwise, they are accepted. 

•  Echo Request, Timestamp Request, …  Select the packet types you wish to 

block, using the checkboxes. 

•  RIP v2 – This acts as “master” switch. If enabled, the selected WAN or LAN 

will run RIPv1/v2, otherwise they don’t have RIP function.  

•  LAN, WAN1, WAN2 – If enabled, any WAN or LAN can execute RIP function.

When you have some servers on LAN and their domain names have already 
registered on public DNS. To avoid DNS loop back problem, please enter the 
following fields.  

•  Domain Name – Enter the domain name specified by you for local 

host/server. 

•  Private IP – Enter the private IP address of your local host/server.
