5.8.1 Virtual Servers
Choose menu “ Forwarding→Virtual Servers”, you can view and add virtual servers in the next
screen (shown in Figure 5-24 ). Virtual servers can be used for setting up public services on your LAN,
such as DNS, Email and FTP. A virtual server is defined as a service port, and all requests from the
Internet to this service port will be redirected to the computer specified by the server IP. Any PC that
was used for a virtual server must have a static or reserved IP Address because its IP Address may
be changed when using the DHCP function.
