Port Forwarding/NATisuseful when external devices cannot communicate directly to devices on the
public network of the Digi device. For example, this may occur because the device isbehind a firewall.
By using port forwarding, the connections can pass through the networks transparently. Also, Port
Forwarding/NAT allows multiple devices on the private network to communicate to devices on the
public network by using a shared private IPaddressthat iscontrolled by Port Forwarding/NAT.
Useport forwarding to connect from a Digi device to a RealPort device. For this typeof connection to
occur, your mobile wirelessprovider must be mobile-terminated.
