D-Link DIR-615 User Manual

Section 3 - Configuration

The DIR-615 can be configured as a virtual server so that remote users accessing Web or FTP services via the public

IP address can be automatically redirected to local servers in the LAN (Local Area Network).

The DIR-615 firewall feature filters out unrecognized

packets to protect your LAN network so all computers

networked with the DIR-615 are invisible to the outside

world. If you wish, you can make some of the LAN

computers accessible from the Internet by enabling

Virtual Server. Depending on the requested service,

the DIR-615 redirects the external service request to

the appropriate server within the LAN network.

The DIR-615 is also capable of port-redirection

meaning incoming traffic to a particular port may

be redirected to a different port on the server

computer.

Each virtual service that is created will be listed at the

bottom of the screen in the Virtual Servers List. There are

pre-defined virtual services already in the table. You

may use them by enabling them and assigning the

server IP to use that particular virtual service.
