D-Link DIR-68 User Manual

Section  - Configuration

The DIR-68 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-68 firewall feature filters out unrecognized packets to protect your LAN network so all computers networked with the

DIR-68 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-68 redirects the external service request to the appropriate

server within the LAN network.

The DIR-68 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.
