Port Forwarding

Using this feature, you can put PCs with public IPs and PCs with private IPs in the same LAN area.
If you configure the Port Forwarding settings, remote
users accessing services such as web or FTP at your
local site via public IP addresses can be automatically
redirected to local servers configured with private
IP addresses. In other words, depending on the
requested service (TCP/UDP port number), the
router redirects the external service request to the
appropriate server (located at another internal IP
address).
For example, if you set Type/Public Port to TCP/80
(HTTP or web) and the LAN IP Address/LAN Port to
10.1.1.2/80, then all HTTP requests from outside users
will be transferred to 10.1.1.2 on port 80.Therefore,
by just entering the IP address provided by the ISP,
Internet users can access the service they need at
the local address to which you redirect them.
There is a list of commonly used applications and their
associated port(s), to add an application to the Port
Forwarding list simply select the desired application
and click ' A dd' .
The more common TCP service ports include: HTTP:
80, FTP: 21, Telnet: 23, and POP3: 110.
