SPI (Statefu\f Packet Inspection, a\fso known as dynamic packet fi\fterin\b) 
he\fps  to  prevent  cyber  attacks  by  trackin\b  more  state  per  session.  It 
va\fidates that the traffic passin\b throu\bh the session conforms to the 
protoco\f.
Enab\fe  this  feature  to  protect  your  network  from  certain  kinds  of 
“spoofin\b” attacks. 
If an app\fication has troub\fe workin\b from behind the router, you can 
expose one computer to the Internet and run the app\fication on that 
computer.
Note: Placing  a  computer  in  the  DMZ  may  expose  that  computer  to  a 
\fariety of security risks. Use of this option is only recommended as a last 
resort.
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 automatica\f\fy usin\b DHCP, be sure to make a static reservation 
on the Setup > Network.Settings pa\be so that the IP address of the 
DMZ machine does no\ut chan\be.

A\f\fows mu\ftip\fe VPN c\fients to connect to their corporate network usin\b IPSec. Some VPN c\fients support traversa\f of IPSec throu\bh
NAT. This ALG may interfere with the operation of such VPN c\fients. If you are havin\b troub\fe connectin\b with your corporate network, 
try turnin\b this ALG off. P\fease check with the s\uystem administrator of your corporate network whether your VPN c\fient supports
NAT traversa\f.

A firewa\f\f protects your network from the outside wor\fd. The DIR-826L offers a firewa\f\f type functiona\fity. The SPI feature he\fps

If you choose to expose a computer, you can enab\fe DMZ. DMZ is short for Demi\fitarized Zone. This option wi\f\f expose the 
chosen computer comp\fete\fy to the outside wor\fd.

A\f\fows devices and app\fications usin\b VoIP (Voice over IP) to communicate across NAT. Some VoIP app\fications and devices have 
the abi\fity to discover NAT devices and work around them. This ALG may interfere with the operation of such devices. If you are

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) System is a simp\fified method for securin\b your wire\fess network durin\b the “Initia\f setup” as we\f\f
