Since NAT acts as a “natural” Internet firewall, your router protects your network from access by

outside users, as all incoming connection attempts point to your router unless you specifically create

Virtual Server entries to forward those ports to a PC on your network. When your router needs to allow

outside users to access internal servers, e.g. a web server, FTP server, Email server or game server,

the router can act as a “virtual server”. You can set up a local server with a specific port number for the

service to use, e.g. web/HTTP (port 80), FTP (port 21), Telnet (port 23), SMTP (port 25), or POP3 (port

110). When an incoming access request to the router for a specified port is received, it is forwarded to

the corresponding internal server.

For example, if you set the port number 80 (Web/HTTP) to be mapped to the IP Address 192.168.1.2,

then all incoming HTTP requests from outside users are forwarded to the local server (PC) with the IP

address of 192.168.1.2. If the port is not listed as a predefined application, you need to add it manually.

In addition to specifying the port number used, you also need to specify the protocol used. The
