5.2 Virtual Servers
In some situations, you might want users on the Internet to be able
to access servers on your LAN, such as an FTP Server, Telnet
Server or Web Server. Such remote services are accomplished by
creating
Virtual Server
.
Each virtual server has its own IP address and shares a single public
IP address. It is defined by the Protocol type (
TCP
,
UDP
or
Both
)
and a TCP/UDP/Both port number. Only the enabled virtual
servers can be accessed by remote users over the Internet.
