3.8.2 Virtual Server

Go to Advanced Setup ->NAT -> Virtual Server to set virtual server as you need.

(known as Port Mapping).

You can configure the router as a virtual server so that remote users accessing

services such as the Web or FTP at your local site via public IP addresses can

be automatically redirected to local servers configured with private IP addresses. In

other words, depending on the requested service (TCP/UDP port numbers), the router

redirects the external service request to the appropriate server (located at another

internal IP address). For some applications, you need to assign a set or a range of

ports (example 4000-5000) to a specified local machine to route the packets. The

router allows the user to configure the needed port mappings to suit such applications.
