CONFIGURING THE BARRICADE4-54Virtual ServerUsing this feature, you can put PCs with public IPs and PCs with private IPs in the same LAN area.If you configure the Barricade as a virtual server, remote users accessing services such as web or FTP at your local site via public IP addresses can be automatically redirected to local servers configured with private IP addresses. In other words, depending on the requested service (TCP/UDP port number), the Barricade redirects the external service request to the appropriate server (located at another internal IP address).For example, if you set Type/Public Port to TCP/80 (HTTP or web) and the Private IP/Port to 192.168.2.2/80, then all HTTP requests from outside users will be transferred to 192.168.2.2 on port 80. Therefore, by just entering the IP address provided by the ISP, Internet users can access the service they need at the local address to which you redirect them. The more common TCP service ports include: HTTP: 80, FTP: 21, Telnet: 23, and POP3: 110. Click All known port number for more information about public service ports.
ADVANCED SETTINGS4-55Special ApplicationsSome applications, such as Internet gaming, videoconferencing, Internet telephony and others, require multiple connections. These applications cannot work with Network Address Translation (NAT) enabled. If you need to run applications that require multiple connections, use the following screen to specify the additional public ports to be opened for each application.Click the List of well known special applications link for more information.Specify the public port number normally associated with an application in the Trigger Port field. Set the protocol type to TCP or UDP, then enter the ports that the application requires. The ports may be in the format of a single port, or in a range, e.g., 72-96, or a combination of both.
CONFIGURING THE BARRICADE4-56Popular applications requiring multiple ports are listed in the Popular Applications field. From the drop-down list, choose the application and then choose a row number to copy this data into.Note: Choosing a row that already contains data will overwrite the current settings.For a full list of ports and the services that run on them, see www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers
ADVANCED SETTINGS4-57NAT Mapping TableThis page displays the current NAPT (Network Address Port Translation) address mappings.The NAT address mappings are listed 20 lines per page, click the control buttons to move forwards and backwards. As the NAT mapping is dynamic, a Refresh button is provided to refresh the NAT Mapping Table with the most updated values.The content of the NAT Mapping Table is described as follows:• Protocol - protocol of the flow.• Local IP - local (LAN) host’s IP address for the flow.• Local Port - local (LAN) host’s port number for the flow.• Pseudo IP - translated IP address for the flow.• Pseudo Port - translated port number for the flow.• Peer IP - remote (WAN) host’s IP address for the flow.• Peer Port - remote (WAN) host’s port number for the flow.

SYSTEM4-63Password SettingsUse this page to restrict access based on a password. For security you should assign one before exposing the Barricade to the Internet.Passwords can contain from 3 to12 alphanumeric characters and are case sensitive.Note: If your password is lost, or you cannot gain access to the user interface, press the Reset button (colored blue) on the rear panel (holding it down for at least six seconds) to restore the factory defaults. The default password is “smcadmin”.Enter a maximum Idle Time Out (in minutes) to define a maximum period of time an inactive login session will be maintained. If the connection is inactive for longer than the maximum idle time, it will be logged out, and you will have to log in to the web management system again. Setting the idle time to 0, will mean the connection never times out.(Default: 10 minutes)
CONFIGURING THE BARRICADE4-64Remote ManagementBy default, management access is only available to users on your local network. However, you can also manage the Barricade from a remote host by entering the IP address of a remote computer on this screen. Check the Enabled check box, and enter the IP address of the remote host and click Save Settings.Note: If you check Enabled and specify an IP address of 0.0.0.0, any host can manage the Barricade.For remote management via WAN IP address you need to connect using port 8080. Simply enter WAN IP address followed by :8080 in the address field of your web browser, for example, 212.120.68.20:8080.
