Billion 800VGT Router

Example:

If you would like to remotely access your routers’ Web/HTTP interface all the time, you would need to enable port number 80 (Web/HTTP) and map it to the Router’s LAN IP Address. All incoming HTTP requests on the WAN network will then be forwarded to the router’s IP address of 192.168.1.254. Since port number 80 is already a predefined rule, click Helper in the Application section. A predefined rules window will pop and you can select HTTP_Sever.

Application: HTTP_Sever

Time Schedule: Always On

Protocol: tcp

External Port: 80-80

Redirect Port: 80-80

IP Address: 192.168.1.254

Delete: Click on this to delete this virtual server application.

Using port forwarding has security implications, since outside users will be able to connect to Computers on your network. For this reason you are advised to add specific Virtual Server entries only for the ports that your application actually requires, instead of using the DMZ function. Using the DMZ function will result in all connection attempts from the WAN network having access to the public IP specified in the DMZ config section.

 

If you have disabled the NAT option in the WAN-ISP section, the Virtual Server

 

function will not work.

 

If the DHCP server option is enabled, you have to be very careful when

 

assigning the IP addresses of virtual servers so that you avoid conflicting IP

Attention

addresses. The easiest method of configuring Virtual Servers is to manually

assign static IP address to each virtual server Computer, with an address that

 

 

does not fall into the range of IP addresses that are to be issued by the DHCP

 

server. These manually configured IP addresses MUST still be in the same

 

subnet as the router.
