Port Forward
This feature allows you to make Servers on your LAN accessible to Internet users.
Normally, Internet users would not be able to access a server on your LAN because:
•
Your Server does not have a valid external IP Address.
•
Attempts to connect to devices on your LAN are blocked by the firewall in this
device.

Enter the desired application type.
Traffic from the Internet using this port number will be sent to
the Server. This is normally the same as the Internal Port
Number. If it is different, this device will perform a "mapping"
or "translation" function, allowing the server to use a different
port to the clients.
Enter the port numbers which the Server software is
configured to use.
Select the protocol (TCP or UDP) used by the Server.
Enter the desired IP address.
Use this to Enable or Disable support for this Server, as
required.
