from the Internet to this service port will be redirected to the computer specified by the server IP.

IP Address may be changed when using the DHCP function.

service ports (in XXX – YYY format, XXX is the start port number, YYY is the end port
number).
IP Address - The IP Address of the PC providing the service application.
