There are six submenus in the Firewall/Security menu: Port Forwarding, DMZ, UPnP, IP-
MAC Binding, URL Filtering and Client Filtering. Click a submenu to view and/or modify
the corresponding settings.
3.6.1 Port Forwarding
This page displays the Port Forwarding Rules configured on the Router.
Select the menu Firewall/Security>>Port Forwarding to display the following page:
„
Port Forwarding: Allows you to open public Ports to allow access to the private Port
of a local device. Port Forwarding opens a hole in the Firewall to the specified Local
Network device. Port Forwarding relies on the security of the Local Network device
as it merely allows the incoming connection to reach the Local Network device.
w
Application Name: Allows you specify a Name for the Port Forwarding rule for
easy identification. Special characters or spaces in the Application Name are
not recommended.
w
Protocol: Allows you to specify whether to use TCP, UPD or Both protocols to pass
the Port Forwarding traffic. Both is the default and recommended setting.
w
WAN Port: Allows you to specify the Public Port to be opened. This Port will
match the LAN Port in most configurations. The WAN Port does not need to match
the WAN Port, allowing you to serve Multiple devices on the Local Network on the
same Port (i.e. 80) with differing WAN Ports (i.e. you have three devices that serve
over Port 80. You can set the first WAN Port to 80, the second to 81 and third to
82). The WAN Port can also be different if the LAN Port is well known (i.e. 80, 443,
59, 22, etc…) and you wish to hide it behind a less well known port (i.e. 5001).
w
LAN IP: IP Address of the Local Network device you are Port Forwarding too.
w
LAN Port: The Local Network Port served by the Local Network device, typically
the same as the WAN Port.
