2.1. Operation Mode

 User can select the operation mode.

 The default setting of WizFi630A is AP Mode. (DHCP Server Enabled)

 DHCP Server is usually disabled in AP mode, but for the user’s convenience, DHCP Sever will be

enabled.

2.1.1. Access Point

In this mode, all Ethernet ports and the wireless interface are bridged together. Wired/Wireless

interface has the same IP address space with its top mesh. DHCP Server function is disabled and

WizFi630A does not assign an IP. Wireless (LAN Port included) sending periodic Broadcast Packet to

Station and maintains a connection with Station.

2.1.2. Gateway

When operating in router mode, interfaces are separated into WAN I/F (Top Internet Business

Network), LAN I/F (Sub Private Network: 192.168.16.xxx), and Wireless I/F (Sub Private Network:

192.168.16.xxx). Port # 0 will be assigned to the WAN Port. WizFi630A periodically sends Broadcast

Packet to Sub-LAN (LAN Port included) and maintains connection with Station.

2.1.3. Client (Station)

Wireless I/F is assigned as WAN Port and all Ethernet Ports are bound to LAN Port. Set the profile and

the WizFi630A is automatically connected to the AP when re-booting in the future. Devices that are

connected through the LAN port are assigned a private IP. WizFi630A periodically sends PING Packet

to AP Gateway and maintains connection with AP.

2.1.4. AP-Client Mode

Wireless I/F is assigned as WAN Port and all Ethernet Ports are bound to LAN Port. This mode is

similar to Station mode, however the difference is that the Wireless I/F will operate as client with AP

simultaneously. WizFi630A periodically sends Broadcast Packet to Sub-LAN (LAN Port included) and

maintains connection with Station.

2.6. Firewall settings

2.6.1. DMZ

 Enable/Disable DMZ function.

 A DMZ allows a single computer on your LAN to expose ALL of its unused ports to the Internet.

When doing this, the exposed computer is no longer behind the firewall.

 Sometimes TCP/IP applications require very specialized IP configurations that are difficult to set up

or not supported by your router. In this case, placing your computer in the DMZ is the only way to

get the application working.

Type Description

DMZ Settings Disable/Enable DMZ

DMZ IP Address Input the IP address that you would like to expose all of its unused ports to the Internet

2.6.2. Port forwarding

When a computer on the internet sends data to the external IP address of the router (WizFi630A), the

router (WizFi630A) needs to know what to do with the data. Port Forwarding simply tells the

WizFi630A which computer on the local area network to send the data to. When you have port

forwarding rules set up, your router takes the data off of the external IP address:port number and

sends that data to an internal IP address:port number. Port Forwarding rules are created per port. Thus,

a rule set up for port 53 will only work for port 53.

Type Description

Port Forwarding Disable/Enable Port Forwarding

IP Address Internal IP address

Service Port External ports range

Protocol Supports TCP and UDP

Internal Port Internal port

2.6.3. Packet filtering
