D-Link DIR-685 User Manual
Section 3 - Configuration
The DIR-685 can be configured as a virtual server so that remote users accessing Web or FTP services via the public
IP address can be automatically redirected to local servers in the LAN (Local Area Network).
The DIR-685 firewall feature filters out unrecognized packets to protect your LAN network so all computers networked
with the DIR-685 are invisible to the outside world. If you wish, you can make some of the LAN computers accessible
from the Internet by enabling Virtual Server. Depending on the requested service, the DIR-685 redirects the external
service request to the appropriate server within the LAN network.
The DIR-685 is also capable of port-redirection, meaning incoming traffic to a particular port may be redirected to a
different port on the server computer.
Each virtual service that is created will be listed at the bottom of the screen in the Virtual Servers List. There are
pre-defined virtual services already in the table. You may use them by enabling them and assigning the server IP to
use that particular virtual service.
