Chapter 7 Network Security This chapter guides you on how to protect your home network from unauthorized users by implementing network security functions. You can block or allow specific client devices to access your wireless network using MAC Filtering, or using Access Control for wired and wireless networks, or you can prevent ARP spoofing and ARP attacks by using IP & MAC Binding.
Network Security Chapter 7 7. 1. Firewall & DoS Protection The SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection) Firewall and DoS (Denial of Service) Protection protect the router from cyber attacks. The SPI Firewall can prevent cyber attacks and validate the traffic that is passing through the router based on the protocol. This function is enabled by default, and it is recommended to keep the default settings.

Chapter 8 NAT Forwarding Router’s NAT (Network Address Translation) feature makes the devices in the LAN use the same public IP address to communicate in the internet, which protects the local network by hiding IP addresses of the devices. However, it also brings about the problem that external host cannot initiatively communicate with the specified device in the local network.
Chapter 8 8. 1. NAT Forwarding Translate Address and Port by ALG ALG (Application Layer Gateway) allows customized NAT (Network Address Translation) traversal filters to be plugged into the gateway to support address and port translation for certain application layer “control/data” protocols: FTP, TFTP etc. Enabling ALG is recommended. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the password you set for the Controller. Go to Advanced > NAT Forwarding > ALG.
Chapter 8 8. 2. NAT Forwarding Share Local Resources over the Internet by Virtual Server When you build up a server in the local network and want to share it on the internet, Virtual Server can realize the service and provide it to the internet users. At the same time virtual server can keep the local network safe as other services are still invisible from the internet. Virtual server can be used for setting up public services in your local network, such as HTTP, FTP, DNS, POP3/SMTP and Telnet.
Chapter 8 NAT Forwarding 4. Click View Existing Applications, and choose HTTP. The external port, internal port and protocol will be automatically filled in. Enter the PC’s IP address 192.168.23.100 in the Internal IP field. 5. Click Save to save the settings. Tips: 1. It is recommended to keep the default settings of Internal Port and Protocol if you are not clear about which port and protocol to use. 2.
Chapter 8 NAT Forwarding address of the host. When the data from the internet returns to the external ports, the router can forward them to the corresponding host. Port triggering is mainly applied to online games, VoIPs and video players. Common applications include MSN Gaming Zone, Dialpad, Quick Time 4 players, and so on. Follow the steps below to configure the port triggering rules: 1. Visit http://tplinkwifi.net, and log in with the password you set for the router. 2.
Chapter 8 8. 4. NAT Forwarding Make Applications Free from Port Restriction by DMZ When a PC is set to be a DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) host in the local network, it is totally exposed to the internet, which can realize the unlimited bidirectional communication between internal hosts and external hosts. The DMZ host becomes a virtual server with all ports opened.
