That page is to set up Remote Management. It used to be called Remote Access in the menu structure.
If you are asking about setting that up – it should be there on that page – what firmware do you have on the router?
It probably doesn't make any difference, but your hardware doesn't qualify as one of the Nighthawk WiFi Routers covered here.
You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:
General WiFi Routers (Non-Nighthawk & Non-Orbi) - NETGEAR Communities
In the meantime you could visit the support pages:

Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware. Look at the label on the device for the model number.
You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.
I mention it because Netgear stopped supplying printed manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.
