Using the web interface
Profiles
A profile is a collection of Quality of Service (QoS) settings and other settings
defining the mode in which data is transmitted on an interface. For example, a
profile is used to define whether a connection should be a Standard or
Streaming connection.
You can select between a number of predefined profiles or define your own
profiles for your data transmission.
You need an Administrator password to define profiles and traffic flow filters.
NAT (Network Address Translation)
NAT enables a local-area network to use one set of private IP addresses for
internal traffic and an assigned or static IP address for external traffic. The
built-in NAT module in the terminal makes all necessary address translations
between the local-area traffic and the external traffic.
If more than one user is connected, you must select a network user group with
Router mode to use the NAT of the terminal.
Note
If you have selected more than one profile (one primary and one or
more secondary profiles) for an interface, you must define a traffic
flow filter before you can establish a valid connection.
