Virtual Server
Use the Virtual Server window to set up single-port, trigger port or static-port range forwarding rules
applied to inbound (WAN-to-LAN) traffic. The Virtual Server function allows remote users to access
services on your LAN such as FTP for file transfers or SMTP and POP3 for e-mail. The DSL-504T will
accept remote requests for these services at your Global IP Address, using the specified TCP or UDP
protocol and port number, and then redirect these requests to the server on your LAN with the LAN IP
address you specify. Remember that the specified Private IP Address must be within the useable range of
the subnet occupied by the Router.
UDP/TCP port redirection is used to direct inbound traffic to the specified servers or workstations on your
private network. Port redirection can also be used to direct potentially hazardous packets to a proxy
server outside your firewall. For example, you can configure the Router to direct HTTP packets to a
designated HTTP server in the DMZ. You can define a set of instructions for a specific incoming port or for
a range of incoming ports. Each set of instructions or rule is indexed and can be modified or deleted later
as needed.
The Virtual Server options include a list of preconfigured rules (listed below) for commonly used protocols
in the Virtual Server List. To enable a preconfigured rule, click the selection box for the rule you want to
enable and click the Apply button.
Note
Use the LAN Clients window to select eligible IP addresses before configuring forwarding rules.
