5.8.1 Virtual Servers
Choose menu “Forwarding→Virtual Servers”, and then you can view and add virtual servers
in the next screen (shown in Figure 5-34). 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.
