Virtual Servers example - IP Address seen by Internet users
The following diagram (Figure 4-9, on page 4-20 ) shows an example network where both Internet
users are connecting to the same IP Address, but are using different protocols or port numbers. To
Internet users, all virtual servers on your network have the same IP Address. This is the IP Address
of the External WAN Port field displayed on your STATUS screen. The previous Virtual Servers
screen ( Figure 4-8 on page 4-18 ) shows the configuration for this example.
Exposed Host or DMZ is available for a single computer on the LAN. It exposes all ports on the
specified host to the outside. For security, you should always keep this disabled until you need to
use it. If you are having trouble with an application that uses the Internet, you can try this feature to
troubleshoot. Creating a Special Application (see Special Applications on page 4-14 ) or Virtual
Server (see Custom Virtual Server on page 4-20 ) may be helpful. You must choose a WAN port to
expose the host.
