4.10 Forwarding
Figure 4-48 The Forwarding menu
There are four submenus under the Forwarding menu (shown in
Figure 4-48
):
Virtual Servers
,
Port Triggering
,
DMZ
and
UPnP
. Click any of them, and you will be able to configure the
corresponding function.
4.10.1 Virtual Servers
Choose menu “
Forwarding
→
Virtual Servers
”, and then you can view and add virtual servers in
the next screen (shown in
Figure 4-49
). Virtual servers can be used for setting up public services
on your LAN. A virtual server is defined as a service port, and all requests from Internet to this
service port will be redirected to the computer specified by the server IP. Any PC that was used
for a virtual server must have a static or reserved IP address because its IP address may change
when using the DHCP function.
Figure 4-49
Virtual Servers
Service Port
- The numbers of External Service Ports. You can enter a service port or a
range of service ports (the format is XXX – YYY; XXX is the Start port and YYY is the End
port).
Internal Port
- The Internal Service Port number of the PC running the service application.
You can leave it blank if the
Internal Port
is the same as the
Service Port
, or enter a
specific port number when
Service Port
is a single one.
IP Address
- The IP address of the PC running the service application.

Otherwise there will be a conflict to disable the virtual server.
4.10.2 Port Triggering
Choose menu “
Forwarding
→
Port Triggering
”, you can view and add port triggering in the next
screen (shown in
Figure 4-51
). Some applications require multiple connections, like Internet
games, video conferencing, Internet telephoning and so on. Port Triggering is used for some of
