Virtual Servers
Virtual Servers allow you to host any type of standard server (Web, FTP, DNS, WhoIs, POP3,
Finger, SMTP, VPN, News, Gopher, and Telnet) using the Symantec Firewall/VPN. This lets you
setup a Web server behind the firewall. External users connect to a domain assigned by the
Dynamic DNS feature or the modem port IP address to access a virtual server. The Symantec
Firewall/VPN automatically routes the traffic to the appropriate Host IP on the LAN.
Types of Virtual Servers
The Symantec Firewall/VPN supports two types of Virtual Servers:
•
Pre-defined - Standard server types. The only data required is the IP Address of the server
on your LAN.
•
Custom-defined - Non-standard servers. You must provide additional information about
the server (TCP or UDP port numbers). This can be done in the Custom Virtual Server
screen.
