Port Forwarding
Port forwarding allows remote computers (for example, computers on the Internet) to connect to a
specific computer or service within a private local-area network (LAN). Port Forwarding rules
apply to inbound traffic and will not work if the device is not reachable or traffic to certain ports is
blocked before it reaches the device.
If traffic is going through firewalls, all referenced ports on the gateway and LAN devices must be
accessible.
