In order for external users to access your appliance, you need to open the inbound TCP ports:
80, 443 and 8889 on your firewall/router and forward the inbound TCP traffic on these ports to
the corresponding ports of the local IP address of your MXmeeting appliance.
If you are using a SOHO or home router, opening inbound ports and doing port forwarding are
fairly easy. For example, in a LinkSys router, you usually look for the “Applications” link. In a
Belkin router, you look for the “Virtual Servers” link. After clicking the link, you will see a page
similar to Figure 3.2. Fill in the three TCP ports (80, 443 and 8889) and your MXmeeting
appliance local IP address. The firewall configuration is done.
In Figure 3.2, the “Private IP address” is the MXmeeting appliance’s local IP address, which you
define when you configure the meeting server IP settings; the “Inbound port” may be called
“Source port”; the “Private port” may be called “Destination port”. You can input anything in the
“Description” field. Don’t forget to check the “Enable fields.
