General Information
Summary
Universal Client Interface allows to work with clients regardless of their IP addresses, translating
these addresses to the ones the router is able to work with. It gives a possibility to provide a
network access (for example, Internet access) to mobile clients that are not willing to change their
networking settings. The feature is intended to use with HotSpot, but may be useful even without
HotSpot.

Description
Universal client accepts any incoming address from a connected network interface and does one to
one network address translation so that data may be routed through standard IP networks. Clients
may use any preconfigured addresses. If the Universal client feature is set to translate a client's
address to a public IP address, then the client may even run a server or any other service that
requires a public IP address. It is possible to add static entries, so that some clients will get the
specified addresses.
Universal client is changing source address of each packet just after it is received by the router
(even mangle 'sees' the translated address).
Note also that arp mode must be enabled on the interface you set Universal Client Interface on.
