6.2.1 Configuring for Port Forwarding to Local Servers
Although the router causes your entire local network to appear as a single machine to the Internet, you can
make local servers for different services (for example, FTP or HTTP) visible and available to the Internet.
This is done using this screen.
Requested services are identified by port numbers in an incoming IP packet. For example, a packet that is
sent to the external IP address of your router and destined for port number 80 is an HTTP (Web server)
request, and port 21 is an FTP request. Examples of port numbers are shown at the top of the PORTS menu,
although you are not limited to these choices.
See IETF RFC1700, "Assigned Numbers," for port numbers for common protocols.
Many residential broadband ISP accounts do not allow you to run any server
processes (such as a Web or FTP server) from your location. Your ISP may
periodically check for servers and may suspend your account if it discovers any
active services at your location. If you are unsure, refer to the Acceptable Use
