Setup Tab > Forwarding

The Forwarding screen allows you to set up port range

forwarding and port triggering applications. Port range

forwarding can be used to set up public services or other

specialized Internet applications on your network, while

port triggering can be used to set up triggered ranges and

forwarded ranges for Internet applications.

Port Range Forwarding

Port forwarding can be used to set up public services on

your network. When users from the Internet make certain

requests on your network, the Router can forward those

requests to computers equipped to handle the requests.

If, for example, you set the port number 80 (HTTP) to be

forwarded to IP address 192.168.1.2, then all HTTP requests

from outside users will be forwarded to 192.168.1.2.

NOTE:

You must disable the Router’s DHCP

function to use port forwarding.

You may use this function to establish a web server or FTP

server via an IP gateway. Make sure that you enter a valid

IP address. (You may need to establish a static IP address

in order to properly run an Internet server.) For added

security, Internet users will be able to communicate with

the server, but they will not actually be connected. The

packets will simply be forwarded through the Router.

Port Triggering

Port triggering allows the Router to watch outgoing data

for specific port numbers. The IP address of the computer

that sends the matching data is remembered by the

Router, so that when the requested data returns through

the Router, the data is pulled back to the proper computer

by way of IP address and port mapping rules.
