With an older router, you can make for instance ports 3 and 4 to reside outside the router's NAT. Devices attached to these ports will request an own IP address from the ISP instead of getting a private IP address from your WRT. One might want to have such behaviour when having unsorted firewall issues with a SIP operator.
nvram set vlan0ports="1 2 5*" nvram set vlan1ports="0 3 4 5" nvram commit reboot
According to the user reports, this is confirmed to work at least with a WRT54GSv1.1 after power cycling the router.
If you want to recover the default settings, write the following within ssh session:
nvram set vlan0ports="1 2 3 4 5*" nvram set vlan1ports="0 5" nvram commit reboot
The Port Numbering Explained
The numbers mean the following:
- WRT54G v4 & WRT54GS v3
0 = port 4 1 = port 3 2 = port 2 3 = port 1 4 = WAN 5 = WLAN 5* = WLAN tagged
- WRT54G v2/v3 & WRT54GS v1/v2
0 = WAN 1 = port 1 2 = port 2 3 = port 3 4 = port 4 5 = WLAN 5* = WLAN tagged
The variable vlan0ports equals to the natted LAN side. Correspondently vlan1ports refers to the WAN side, outside the router's internal NAT addressing scheme. 46868380416339785779582
