If you wish, you can make some of them accessible by enabling the Virtual Server Mapping. A virtual server is defined as a Service Port, and all requests to this port will be redirected to the computer specified by the Server IP.
  • Page 35 For example, if you have an FTP server (port 21) at 192.168.1.2, a Web server (port 80) at 192.168.1.4, and a VPN server at 192.168.1.6, then you need to specify the following virtual server mapping table:...
