Configuring Port Forwarding
Port forwarding is used to redirect traffic from the Internet from one port on the
WAN to another port on the LAN. The port forwarding rules menu allows selection
of a service. Common services are available or you can define a custom service
and associated ports to forward.
The Port Forwarding Rule Table lists all the available port forwarding rules for this
device and allows you to configure port forwarding rules. The table contains the
following information:
•
Action—Whether to block or allow traffic (always or by schedule) that
meets these filter rules, and when the rule is applicable.
•
Service—Service for which this port forwarding rule is applicable.
•
Status—A port forwarding rule can be disabled if not in use and enabled
when needed. The port forwarding rule is disabled if the status is disabled
and it is enabled if the status is enabled. Disabling a port forwarding rule
does not delete the configuration.
•
Source IP—The source IP address for traffic from which traffic is forwarded
(Any, Single Address or Address Range).
•
Destination IP—The IP address of the server to which traffic is forwarded.
•
Forward From Port—From which port traffic will be forwarded.
•
Forward To Port—To which port traffic will be forwarded.
