Web Publishing Port Number
If the web-published shares use a port number other than 80 (the normal port for web traffic),
users must include it after the NSA’s IP address in order to access the NSA’s web-published shares.
For example, say you specified port 8080, the NSA’s IP address is 192.168.1.23, and the name of
the web-published share is FamilyPhotos. You would have to enter “http://192.168.1.23:8080/
MyWeb/FamilyPhotos/” in your browser’s address bar to access the share’s web page.
The NSA’s web configurator uses port 80. To make the web configurator more secure, you can have
the web-published shares use another port number. Then you can configure one set of firewall rules
and NAT or port forwarding settings on your Internet gateway specifically for allowing access to the
web-published shares and another separate set of rules for accessing the NSA’s web configurator.

In the following example, the Internet gateway’s firewall is configured to allow anyone to access the
NSA’s web-published screens using port 8080. Web configurator access (port 80) however, is only
allowed from IP address a.b.c.d.
