your router and redirect data through those ports to a single PC on your network. You can enter ports
in various formats:
1. Rule Name – enter the rule name in the Rule Name box.
2. IP Address - enter the local network IP address of the device that you would like to port
forward.
3. Port Range – enter the port number that you would like open on the required field
4. Protocol – choose the protocol that you would like to open then click Apply for the settings to
take effect.
