Figure 5.33 Add NAPT Rule
This drop-down menu displays all of your available NAPT addresses/ranges, from which you
can select an entry. If you would like to add a single address or a sub-range from the given
pool/range, select the ‘User Defined’ option from the drop-down menu. This will commence a
sequence that will add a new Network Object, representing the new host. Refer to Section 6.9.2
in order to learn how to do so. Note, however, that in this case the network object may only be
an IP address, as NAPT is port-specific.
• NAPT Ports Specify the port(s) for the IP address into which the original IP address will be
translated. Enter a single port or select ‘Range’ in the drop-down menu. The screen refreshes,
enabling you to enter a range of ports.
Logging Monitor the rule.
Figure 5.34 Add NAPT Rule
• Log Packets Matched by This Rule Select this check box to log the first packet from a

Schedule By default, the rule will always be active. However, you can define time segments
during which the rule may be active, by selecting ‘User Defined’ from the ‘Schedule’ drop-down
menu. If more than one scheduler rule is defined, the ‘Schedule’ drop-down menu will allow you to
choose between the available rules. To learn how to configure scheduler rules, refer to
Section 6.9.3.
5.2.8 Configuring the Advanced Filtering Mechanism
Advanced filtering is designed to allow comprehensive control over the firewall’s behavior. You can
define specific input and output rules, control the order of logically similar sets of rules and make a
distinction between rules that apply to WAN and LAN devices.
To view iPECS SBG-1000’s advanced filtering options, click the ‘Advanced Filtering’ link of the
‘Firewall’ menu item. The ‘Advanced Filtering’ screen appears.
