Configuring Internal forwarding settings
The Virtual Servers function will allow you to route external (Internet)
calls for services such as a web server (port 80), FTP server (Port 21), or
other applications through your Router to your internal network . Since
your internal computers are protected by a firewall, computers outside
your network (over the Internet) cannot get to them because they cannot
be “seen” . A list of common applications has been provided in case you
need to configure the Virtual Server function for a specific application .
If your application is not listed, you will need to contact the application
vendor to find out which port settings you need .
Choosing an application
Select your application from the drop-down list . Click “Add” . The settings
will be transferred to the next available space in the screen . Click
“Apply Changes” to save the setting for that application . To remove an
application, select the number of the row that you want to remove then
click “Clear” .
Manually entering settings into the Virtual server
To manually enter settings, enter the IP address in the space provided for
the internal (server) machine, the port(s) required to pass (use a comma
between multiple ports), select the port type (TCP or UDP), and click
“Apply Changes” . You can only pass one port per internal IP address .
Opening ports in your firewall can pose a security risk . You can enable
and disable settings very quickly . It is recommended that you disable the
settings when you are not using a specific application .
