Manage Port Forwarding for Incoming Traffic

Note You can enable and manage port forwarding only when the modem functions in Router
mode (see
By default, the modem blocks inbound traffic from the Internet to your computers except for replies to your
outbound traffic. To allow remote computers on the Internet to access a computer on your local network,
you might need to create exceptions to this rule.
Port forwarding is an advanced feature that affects the behavior of the firewall in the modem. By enabling
port forwarding, you can make local computers or servers available to the Internet for different services.
Port forwarding is designed for FTP servers, HTTP web servers, and other server-based applications and
services. After you set up port forwarding, requests from the Internet are forwarded to the specified server.
Before you start, determine which type of service or application you want to provide and the local IP address
of the computer that must provide the service.
