PLANET ADSL VPN / Firewall Router

3.6.3.6.2An example of configuring the Web Server & the Router to be accessible remotely

Background of the Example

Setup the Web server in the office that can be visible to the outside network. In the meantime, set the router to be accessible remotely through HTTP. Since they use the same protocol (TCP), we have to change the port number of either application to make these two services available. Please note the access method to the Web server and router is different in case 1 & 2, this is particularly related to port number setting, refer below for details.
