Configuring Internal forwarding settings
The Virtual Servers function will allow you to route external (Internet) calls
for services such as a web server (port 80), FTP server (Port 21), or other
applications through your Router to your internal network� Since your
internal computers are protected by a firewall, computers outside your
network (over the Internet) cannot get to them because they cannot be
“seen”� A list of common applications has been provided in case you need
to configure the Virtual Server function for a specific application� If your
application is not listed, you will need to contact the application vendor to
find out which port settings you need�
Choosing an application
Select your application from the drop-down list� Click “Add”� The settings
will be transferred to the next available space in the screen� Click “Apply
Changes” to save the setting for that application� To remove an application,
select the number of the row that you want to remove then click “Clear”�
Manually Entering settings into the Virtual server
To manually enter settings, enter the IP address in the space provided for
the internal (server) machine, the port(s) required to pass (use a comma
between multiple ports), select the port type (TCP or UDP), and click “Apply
Changes”� You can only pass one port per internal IP address� Opening
ports in your firewall can pose a security risk� You can enable and disable
settings very quickly� It is recommended that you disable the settings when
you are not using a specific application�
