Forwarding

Figure 6-31
Forwarding sets up public services on your network, such as web servers, ftp
servers, or e-mail servers. When users send this type of request to your net-
work via the Internet, the Router will forward those requests to the appropriate
PC. Before using Forwarding, the Router's DHCP function must be disabled
under the DHCP tab and the Router must be assigned a new static LAN IP
address because the IP address may change when using the DHCP server.
If you need to forward all ports for one PC, see the section on DMZ hosting.
To add a server using Forwarding:
1. Enter the port number or range of ports used by the server. On the same
line, select the protocol UDP, TCP, or Both, and enter the LAN IP address
of the server that you want the Internet user to access.
2. Configure as many entries as needed—the Router supports up to 10 ranges
of ports. Click the Apply button and Continue button when finished.
