Can't answer the first part of your question, in fact questions on how to
upgrade the m10 seem to be hardly ever answered on this list(come on
telecom we know you subscribe).

The second part can be alleviated by forwarding everything to another host,
eg linux or freebsd which can pinhole (or port forward) on any number of
rules.

That machine will have two ethernet cards ie:

m10<-------pinhole all ports--------> eth0:linux/bsd:eth1<------fwd/pinhole
many entries------->Hub<------------->LAN

you can set this up on the m10 with two entries like

ext port start ext port end protocol internal ip address
        internal port
1 65535 tcp address of
eth0 1
1 65535 udp address of
eth0 1

although this looks at first glance as if it forwards everything to port
one on the internal machine, in fact there is a one to one relationship so
1---->1, 2----->2 ............ 65535------>65535
(at least according to Dan Langille's faq)

Hi All,

Couple of questions...

1) I have an M10 with firmware 5.1.0 (build R0). I understand a later
version is available and am interested to understand: i) what is the latest
version ii) what are the features iii) where do I get it and how do I
install it???

2) I hit my limit of 8 pinhole entries a while back and am finding it
really
restrictive now I'm hosting stuff. Are more than 8 entries possible
somehow?
Does the later firmware help?

Regards

Andrew Hooper
