The APPLICATIONS & GAMING Tab - PORT RANGE FORWARDING
Port range forwarding sets up public services on your network, such as web servers, ftp servers, e-mail servers,
or other specialized Internet applications. (Specialized Internet applications are any applications that use Internet
access to perform functions such as videoconferencing or online gaming. Some Internet applications may not
require any forwarding.)
When users send these types of requests to your network via the Internet, the Router will forward those requests
to the appropriate servers (computers). Before using forwarding, you should assign static IP addresses to the
designated servers (use the DHCP Reservation feature on the
Basic Setup
screen).
If you need to forward all ports to one PC, click the
DMZ
tab.
Port Range Forwarding

To IP Address
. Enter the IP address of the server that you want the Internet users to be able to access. To find
the IP address, go to “Appendix E: Finding the MAC Address and IP Address for Your Ethernet Adapter.” If you
assigned a static IP address to the server, then you can click the
DHCP Reservation
button on the
Basic Setup
screen to look up its static IP address.
