Connecting to your Servers
Once configured, anyone on the WAN or Internet can connect to your Servers. They must use the
WAN (Internet) IP Address of WAP-4050:
e.g.
http://203.70.212.52
ftp://203.70.212.52
It is more convenient if you are using a Fixed IP Address, rather than Dynamic. However, you can use
the
Dynamic DNS
feature, described in the following section, to allow users to connect to your
Port
Forwarding
using a URL, rather than an IP Address.
3.3.3 DDNS
This free service is very useful when combined with the
Port Forwarding
feature. It allows Internet
users to connect to your servers using a URL, rather than an IP Address.
