Remember that allowing inbound services opens holes in your ProSafe DGFV338. Enable only
those ports that are necessary for your network. We also recommend enabling the server’s
application security and configuring user password or privilege levels, if provided.
To create a new inbound service rule:
1.
Click
Add
under the
Inbound Services
table. The
Add LAN-WAN Inbound Service
appears.
2.
Configure the parameters based on the descriptions in
Table 0-1 on page 4-7
.
Note:
Some residential broadband ISP accounts do not allow you to run any server
processes (such as a Web or FTP server) from your location. Your ISP may
periodically check for servers and may suspend your account if it discovers any
active services at your location. If you are unsure, refer to the Acceptable Use
Policy of your ISP.
