Games

This category includes XBox LIVE.

XBox 360 requires gateways hosting XBox LIVE games to use the "Open NAT" method rather than the normal "Strict NAT" method. Therefore, if you want to host online games on an XBox 360 console, you must first configure your UTM-1 appliance to use the "Open NAT" method.

XBox LIVE Fields

Do this…

Xbox Live OpenNAT

Specify whether the UTM-1 appliance should use the "Open NAT" method, by selecting one of the following:

  • Enabled. Use the "Open NAT" method. You will be able to host XBox LIVE games and join existing ones.
  • Disabled. Do not use the "Open NAT" method. You will not be able to host XBox LIVE games, but you will still be able to join existing ones. This is the default.
