B.Virtual Server
On this Virtual Server screen (see Figure 13), you can set up a local server with specific port number that stands for the service (e.g. web(80), FTP(21), Telnet(23)). When this device receives an incoming access request for this specific port, it will be forwarded to the corresponding internal server. You can add virtual servers by either port numbers or by names. There are a maximum of 24 Server entries allowed and each port number can only be assigned to one IP address.
NOTE: Setting up a Virtual Server is like opening the firewall, which exposes your network to users on the Internet. Which means the Router’s NAT will no longer be able to provide protection from hackers.
