3.3.1 Port Forwarding


The Port Forwarding allows you to re-direct a particular range of service port numbers (from the
Internet/WAN Ports) to a particular LAN IP address. It helps you to host some servers behind
the router NAT firewall.

This is the private IP address of the server behind the NAT

firewall. Note: You need to give your LAN PC clients a

fixed/static IP address for Port Forwarding to work properly.

Pull down the menu and all the computers connected to the
router will be listed here. If you do not see any computer after
you click on the drop-down menu, select the option “Refresh
and you will be given a list of computers that are connected to
your network. You can easily select the computer name without
checking the IP address of the computer.

both “TCP” and “UDP” packets.
