Virtual Server
The DIR-855 can be configured as a virtual server so that remote users accessing Web or FTP services via the public
IP address can be automatically redirected to local servers in the LAN (Local Area Network).
The DIR-855 firewall feature filters out unrecognized packets to protect your LAN network so all computers networked
with the DIR-855 are invisible to the outside world. If you wish, you can make some of the LAN computers accessible
from the Internet by enabling Virtual Server. Depending on the requested service, the DIR-855 redirects the external
service request to the appropriate server within the LAN network.
The DIR-855 is also capable of port-redirection meaning incoming traffic to a particular port may be redirected to a
different port on the server computer.
Each virtual service that is created will be listed at the bottom of the screen in the Virtual Servers List. There are
pre-defined virtual services already in the table. You may use them by enabling them and assigning the server IP to
use that particular virtual service.

your uplink speed with a service such as www.dslreports.com.
Connection Type: By default, the router automatically determines whether the underlying connection is an xDSL/Frame-relay network or some
other connection type (such as cable modem or Ethernet), and it displays the result as Detected xDSL or Frame Relay Network.
If you have an unusual network connection in which you are actually connected via xDSL but for which you configure either
“Static” or “DHCP” in the Internet settings, setting this option to xDSL or Other Frame Relay Network ensures that the router
will recognize that it needs to shape traffic slightly differently in order to give the best performance. Choosing xDSL or Other
Frame Relay Network causes the measured uplink speed to be reported slightly lower than before on such connections, but
gives much better results.
Detected xDSL: When Connection Type is set to automatic, the automatically detected connection type is displayed here.

Firewall Settings
A firewall protects your network from the outside world. The DIR-855 offers a firewall type functionality. The SPI feature
helps prevent cyber attacks. Sometimes you may want a computer exposed to the outside world for certain types of
applications. If you choose to expose a computer, you can enable DMZ. DMZ is short for Demilitarized Zone. This option
will expose the chosen computer completely to the outside world.
Enable SPI: SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection, also known as dynamic packet
filtering) helps to prevent cyber attacks by tracking more state per
session. It validates that the traffic passing through the session
conforms to the protocol.
NAT Endpoint Select one of the following for TCP and UDP ports:
Filtering: Endpoint Independent - Any incoming traffic sent to an open port
will be forwarded to the application that opened the port. The port
will close if idle for 5 minutes.
Address Restricted - Incoming traffic must match the IP address
of the outgoing connection.
Address + Port Restriction - Incoming traffic must match the IP
address and port of the outgoing connection.
Anti-Spoof Check: Enable this feature to protect your network from certain kinds of
“spoofing” attacks.
Enable DMZ: If an application has trouble working from behind the router, you
can expose one computer to the Internet and run the application
on that computer.
Note: Placing a computer in the DMZ may expose that computer to
a variety of security risks. Use of this option is only recommended
as a last resort.
DMZ IP Address: Specify the IP address of the computer on the LAN that you want to have unrestricted Internet communication. If this computer
obtains it’s IP address automatically using DHCP, be sure to make a static reservation on the Basic > DHCP page so that
the IP address of the DMZ machine does not change.

PPTP: Allows multiple machines on the LAN to connect to their corporate network using PPTP protocol.
IPSEC (VPN): Allows multiple VPN clients to connect to their corporate network using IPSec. Some VPN clients support traversal of IPSec
through NAT. This ALG may interfere with the operation of such VPN clients. If you are having trouble connecting with your
corporate network, try turning this ALG off. Please check with the system administrator of your corporate network whether
your VPN client supports NAT traversal.
RTSP: Allows application that uses Real Time Streaming Protocol to receive streaming media from the Internet. QuickTime and
Real Player are some of the common applications using this protocol.
SIP: Allows devices and applications using VoIP (Voice over IP) to communicate across NAT. Some VoIP applications and devices
have the ability to discover NAT devices and work around them. This ALG may interfere with the operation of such devices.
If you are having trouble making VoIP calls, try turning this ALG off.
