Connecting to the Virtual Server
Once configured, anyone on the Internet can connect to your Virtual Servers. They must use the VPN800/8 F Firewall Internet IP Address (the IP Address allocated by your ISP). e.g.
http://205.20.45.34
ftp://205.20.45.34
To Internet users, all virtual Servers on your LAN have the same IP Address. This IP Address is allocated by your ISP.
This address should be static, rather than dynamic, to make it easier for Internet users to connect to your Servers. However, you can use the Dynamic DNS feature (explained later in this chapter) to allow users to connect to your Virtual Servers using a URL, instead of an IP Address.
