13.3 Port Forwarding
If you select Firewall Settings in the top navigation menu and then select Port Forwarding in the left submenu, the
following screen appears.
By default the Router blocks all external users from connecting to your network. However, you can configure
specific applications on your network to be accessible from the Internet. Port Forwarding allows the Router to
enable applications (Games, Webcams, IM & Others) by opening a tunnel between remote (Internet) computers and
a specific device port inside your local area network (LAN). Services on the LAN will be exposed to external
Internet users.
