ìClick on the Delete button to delete an entry. Click on the Add button to add a new entry.

ìApply the settings by clicking OK.Port Forwarding

If you configure Port Forwarding, the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable outwardly assumes the role of the servers. It receives requests from remote users under its public IP address and automatically redirects them to local PCs. The private IP addresses of the servers on the local network remain protected.

Internet services are addressed via defined port numbers. The Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/ cable needs a mapping table of the port numbers to redirect the service requests to the server that actually provides the service. For this, Port Forwarding has to be configured.

ìTo set up port forwarding for a service, select Port Forwarding in the Address Translation (NAT) menu.

ìSelect the required application from the Predefined applications list.

ìClick the Add button. The data for the required service is entered on the screen.

ìSelect the option in the Enabled column.

If the application you require is not in the list, then you must enter the relevant data on the screen manually:

ìSelect the protocol of the service you are providing from the Protocol list.ìUnder Public port, enter the port number of the service you are providing.

ìIn the Local port field, enter the internal port number to which service requests are to be forwarded.
