5.2 Allowing Internet Users to Access an  
Internal Resource Server  
Without special settings, Internet users cannot access the web or FTP servers  
on a LAN. By using the network address translation (NAT) function of the  
HG630a, specified Internet users are allowed to access the web and FTP  
servers on a LAN.  
Furthermore, IP addresses used by most users to access the Internet are  
dynamically assigned by service providers, so many cannot use fixed IP  
addresses to access the resources provided on servers. The  
HG630a's Dynamic Domain Name Service (DDNS) function allows Internet  
users to use fixed domain names to access the resources provided on servers.  
After the DDNS function is enabled, the HG630a automatically submits the new  
IP address obtained to the server of a DDNS provider. On the DDNS server, the  
IP address that corresponds to the domain name is updated to the latest IP  
address. When a computer on the Internet accesses the domain name,  
the DDNS server provides the latest IP address to that computer.  
If you deploy a web server on a LAN and want Internet users to be able to  
access the web site on the web server through a fixed domain name, take the  
follow IP addresses of relevant devices as an example:  
The IP address of the HG630a LAN port is 192.168.1.1.  
The IP address of the web server is 192.168.1.24.  
You can use the port relay function of the NAT and DDNS function to implement  
the preceding requirements.  
Before the configuration, you need to complete the following actions:  
Apply for the DDNS from a DDNS provider to obtain relevant  
parameters.  
Apply for a domain name for the web site from the institution that  
manages web site domain names.  
After the preceding actions, set the parameters of the HG630a as follows:  
Configure a port mapping rule, and then map the IP address of  
the web server (192.168.1.24:80) to the 80 port of the WAN port.  
Configure the DDNS. Ensure that the HG630a can submit IP  
addresses to the DDNS server automatically.  
The configuration procedure is as follows:  
Step 1  
Log in to the web-based configuration utility.  
15  
 
 
Step 2  
Step 3  
Step 4  
Step 5  
Choose Advanced > NAT.  
Click Port Mapping tab.  
Click New.  
Select Application, and then select Security web server (HTTP) for  
Application.  
The port mapping function of the HG630a provides parameter setting  
templates of multiple applications. After a template is selected, the  
HG630a sets relevant parameters automatically. You can change the  
parameter settings as required. You can also set all the parameters  
manually based on the requirements of other applications.
