Virtual Server

Use the Virtual Server function when you need to have different servers in your LAN to handle many
services and Internet applications (e.g. Email, FTP, Web server etc.) to the Internet. Computers use
numbers called port numbers to recognize a particular service/Internet application type. The Virtual
Server allows you to re-direct a particular service port number (from the WAN Port) to a particular LAN
private IP address as its service port number.
Parameters

Description
Enable Virtual Server.
This is the LAN client/host IP address that the Public Port number packet will
be sent to.
Note: You need to give your LAN PC clients a fixed/static IP address for
Virtual Server to work properly.
This is the port number (of the above Private IP host) that the below Public
Port number will be changed to when the packet enters your LAN (to the
LAN Server/Client IP).
Select the port number protocol type (TCP, UDP or Both). If you are unsure,
then leave it to the default both protocols.
Enter the service (service/Internet application) port number from the Internet
that will be re-directed to the above Private IP address host in your LAN.
