    (1) The default value for Server access rule is ALL. (2) Under the default setting: You can setup the Menu 15 to forwarding the server to LAN IP address. Thus you can configure the router through the WAN and you don’t need to modify the server management or filter.
  • Page 13: Appendix 2 Trigger Port

    When the requested data wants to come back in through the firewall, the router uses the port mapping rules that are linked to the trigger, and the IP address of the computer that "pulled" the trigger, to get the data back to the proper computer.
  • Page 14 (1) Trigger events can't happen on data coming from outside the firewall because the NAT router's sharing function doesn't work in that direction. (2) Only one computer can use a port or port range at a time on a given real (ISP...

Default values of any direction are “Forward”, and trigger dial is “Disabled”. There are two CI commands: (1) "sys filter netbios disp": It will display the current filter mode. Example ouput: =============== NetBIOS Filter Status =============== LAN to WAN:...
  • Page 16: Appendix 4 Traffic Redirect/Static Route Application Note

    Step 1. PC sends outgoing traffics through ZyWALL because default gateway assigned to it. Step 2. Then, ZyWALL will redirect the traffics to another gateway (ISDN/Router) as we expect. Step 3. But the return traffics do not go through ZyWALL because the gateway (say, P201) and the PC are on the same IP network.

  • Page 18: Appendix 5 Ipsec Fqdn Support

    If ZyWALL A wants to build a VPN tunnel with ZyWALL B by passing through Router C with NAT, A can not see B. It has to secure gateway as C. However, ZyWALL B will send it packet with its own IP and its ID to ZyWALL A. The IP will be NATed by Router C, but the ID will remain as ZyWALL B sent.
