Port Forwarding - ATEN RCM101D User Manual

Appendix

Port Forwarding

For devices located behind a router, port forwarding allows the router to pass
data coming in over a specific port to a specific device. By setting the port
forwarding parameters, you tell the router which device to send the data
coming in over a particular port to.
For example, if the RCM101D connected to a particular router has an IP
address of 192.168.1.180, you would log into your router's setup program and
access the Port Forwarding (sometimes referred to as Virtual Server)
configuration page. You would then specify 192.168.1.180 for the IP address
and the port number you want opened for it (9000 for internet access, for
example).
Since configuration setup can vary somewhat for each brand of router, refer to
the router's User Manual for specific information on configuring port
forwarding for it.
