3-6 NAT Network address translations solve the problem if sharing a single IP address to multiple computers. Without NAT, all computers must be assigned with a valid Internet IP address to get connected to Internet, but Internet service providers only provide very few IP addresses to every user. Therefore it’s necessary to use NAT technology to share a single Internet IP address to multiple computers on local network, so everyone can get connected to Internet.
Private Port Type Public Port Comment Add Reset Please note that this list may not be able to list all computers on your local network. Input the port number of the IP address which provides Internet service. Select the type of connection, TCP or UDP.
