Figure 4: Entering the port forwarding rule details

In the 

Source IP address

 field, enter the address from which the traffic will originate. This is usually a WAN IP address originating 

from the internet. In this example, we are setting the Source IP Address to 0.0.0.0 which allows connections from anywhere. 

7

 

In the 

Source port range (From)

 and 

(To)

 fields, enter the range of ports to forward. For example, entering 6881 in the first field 

and 6999 in the second field will forward the 19 ports between and including 6881 and 6999. If you wish to forward a single port, 
enter the same port number in both the first and the second fields.

In the 

Destination networking address

 field, enter the local IP address of the LAN client to which port traffic will be forwarded. 

9

 

In the 

Destination port range (From)

 and 

(To)

 fields, enter the port range for the destination. In many cases these ports will be 

the same as the Incoming Port Range. If you wish to specify a single port, enter the same port number in both the first and the 
second fields.

Click the 

Save

 button. The port forwarding rule is displayed at the bottom of the screen as highlighted in Figure 5 below.
