Creating or Deleting an IP Forwarding Rule
IP forwarding rules create additional IP addresses at the LAN (ext) interface, if
"static IP address" has been selected on the "LAN (ext)" page. Packets to one of
these IP addresses will be forwarded to the IP address in the local LAN that is
assigned to it.
The firewall is also effective for these additional IP addresses.
Therefore, these additional IP addresses must be permitted in the
"LAN (ext)" menu on the "Firewall" page, if the firewall is enabled.
Otherwise, all packets that are not directed to these IP addresses
would be discarded.
Configuration via web interface (menu "LAN (ext)", page "IP forwarding")
In order to enable IP forwarding, check the checkbox "Activate IP
forwarding".
In order to create an IP forwarding rule, in the "Create new rule" section
the additional IP address with netmask into the "LAN (ext) IP address"
field and the destination address into the "Destination IP address" field.
The packets to the additional address will then be forwarded to this
address. Save the entry by clicking "OK".
In order to delete an existing rule, check under "Existing rules" the
checkbox of the rule(s) to be deleted.
Save your settings by clicking "OK".
