3.3.1 Virtual Server (Port Forwarding)

The Virtual Server 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.

Parameter	Description
Enable Virtual Server	Enable Virtual Server (Port Forwarding)
Private IP	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 Virtual Server to work properly.
Computer Name	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.
Private Port	Input the port number of the IP address which provides Internet
	service.
Type	This is the protocol type to be forwarded. You can choose to
	forward “TCP” or “UDP” packets only or select “both” to forward
	both “TCP” and “UDP” packets.
