VPN Pass-through*

When the DiskStation acts as a router, VPN pass-through allows clients to pass through the DiskStation NAT and establish outbound or inbound VPN connections. If your internal setup includes a VPN server, please go to Control Panel > External Access > Router Configuration to set up port forwarding rules and allow the VPN server to establish VPN connections.

To edit VPN pass-through settings:

  2. After modifying settings, click Apply.

Note:

If your DiskStation device connects to the Internet via PPPoE, the related DoS protection or VPN pass-through rules must be configured on the corresponding PPPoE interface.
