9.2.2 Reverse NAPT / Virtual Server

Reverse NAPT is also called inbound mapping, port mapping, or

virtual server. Any packet coming to the RX3042H can be relayed

to the internal host based on the protocol, port number and/or IP

address specified in the ACL rule. This is useful when multiple

services are hosted on different internal hosts. Figure 9.2shows that

web server (TCP/80) is hosted on PC A, telnet server (TCP/23) on

PC B, DNS server (UDP/53) on PC C and FTP server (TCP/21) on

PC D. This means that the inbound traffic of these four services will

be directed to respective host hosting these services.
