PORT FORWARDS
Port Forwarding is a technique for transmitting and receiving network traffic through a router that involves re-writing
the destination IP addresses and optionally the TCP/UDP port numbers of IP packets as they pass through. The various
routing configurations will be displayed in the IP Forwarding Configuration Table at the bottom of the Port Forwards
page.
