Twin WAN Series – User Guide | v1
Connecting to Virtual Servers
Once configured, anyone on the Internet can connect to your Virtual Servers. They must
use the Twin WAN Gateway’s Internet IP Address (the IP Address provided by your
ISP).
Example:
http://205.20.45.34
ftp://205.20.45.34
•
To Internet users, all virtual Servers on your LAN have the same IP Address. This
IP Address is allocated by your ISP.
•
This address should be static, rather than dynamic, to make it easier for Internet
users to connect to your Servers. However, you can use the Dynamic DNS feature
(explained later in this chapter) to allow users to connect to your Virtual Servers
using a URL, instead of an IP Address.
e.g.
HTTP://my_domain_name.dyndns.org
FTP://my_domain_name.dyndns.org
Virtual Server - Settings
Enable
Use this to Enable or Disable each Virtual server as required.
Server Type
Select the desired Server type. If the type of Server you wish to use is not listed, use the
Custom Virtual Server screen to define your own type.
LAN IP Address
Enter the IP address of the PC on your LAN which is running the required Server
software.
Each PC should have a fixed IP address, or have a reserved IP address. (See the Host IP
section earlier in this chapter for details on reserving an IP address.)
