Internet Services (Optional)

To have a Web server, e-mail server, or other server on your network accessible from the
Internet, to use Internet communication features (such as NetMeeting), or to play Internet
enabled games, you’ll have to allow access to your computers from the Internet. You do this 
by configuring the Ports page in the configuration menus. For more information about Port
forwarding, refer to the Reference Manual on the Resource CD.
