Port forwarding allows selected servers running on the LAN side of the router to be accessed from the WAN side. Requests from the WAN to a configured TCP or UDP port will forwarded to the selected IP address on the LAN.
In order to provide such access, your SpeedStream router may be configured to forward certain inbound traffic from the
This methodology is commonly referred to as port forwarding, and is implemented by means of a Network Address Port Translation (NAPT) operation.
