Considerations for Port Forwarding
•If the IP address of the local server PC is assigned by DHCP, it may change when the PC is rebooted. To avoid this, you can assign a static IP address to your server outside the range that is assigned by DHCP, but in the same subnet as the rest of your LAN. By default, the IP addresses in the range of 192.168.0.2 through 192.168.0.9 are reserved for this.
•Local PCs must access the local server using the PCs’ local LAN address (192.168.0.XXX, by default). Attempts by local PCs to access the server using the external WAN IP address will fail.
Remember that allowing inbound services opens holes in your firewall. Only enable those ports that are necessary for your network. The following are two application examples of inbound rules.
