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.
