| type is not listed, you can create a Firewall Rule to achieve the |
| same effect as the Virtual Server function. |

For each entry, the PC must be running the appropri- ate Server software.
If the desired Server type is not listed, you can define your own Servers, using the Firewall Rules.
Connecting to the Virtual Servers
Once configured, anyone on the Internet can connect to your Virtual Servers. They must use the Internet IP Address (the IP Address allocated to you by your ISP).
e.g.
http://203.70.212.52
ftp://203.70.212.52
It is more convenient if you are using a Fixed IP Address from your ISP, rather than Dynamic. However, you can use the Dynamic DNS feature, described in the following section, to allow users to connect to your Virtual Servers using a URL, rather than an IP Address.
From the Internet, ALL Virtual Servers have the IP Address allocated by your ISP
