4.2.6.2 Virtual Server
This function allows user to redirect a port on Internet IP address (on WAN port) to a
specified port of an IP address on local network, so it can setup an Internet service
on the computer on local network, without exposing it on Internet directly. Users can
also build many sets of port redirection to provide many different Internet services on
different local computers via a single Internet IP address.
Parameter
Description
Enable Virtual Server
Allow Virtual Server to be enabled.

number packet will be sent. Users need to give the LAN PC
clients a fixed/static IP address for Virtual Server to work
properly.

router will be listed here. Users can easily select the
computer name without checking the IP address of the
computer.
Private Port
This is the port number (of the above Private IP host) that the
below Public Port number will be changed to when the packet
enters the LAN (to the LAN Server/Client IP).
Type
Select the port number protocol type (TCP, UDP or both). If
users are unsure, then leave it to default.
Public Port
Enter the service (service/Internet application) port number
from the Internet that will be redirected to the above Private
