LABEL DESCRIPTION
NAT & Port Forwarding
Network Address
Translation (NAT)
Network Address Translation (NAT) allows the translation of an Internet protocol address used
within one network (for example a private IP address used in a local network) to a different IP
address known within another network (for example a public IP address used on the
Internet).
Select Enable to activate NAT. Select Disable to turn it off.
