PORT FORWARDING
On this screen, you can configure port forwarding. Port forwarding enables multiple server applications on
a LAN to serve clients on a WAN over a single WAN IP address. The router accepts incoming client packets,
filters them based on the destination WAN, or public, port and protocol and forwards the packets to the
appropriate LAN, or local, port. Unlike the DMZ feature, port forwarding protects LAN devices behind the
firewall.
