Address/Range
The Internet IP address of the web server.
The external IP address must be a static IP address obtained from
your ISP for your web server. This address must be a unique IP
address that is not used by another host and cannot be the same as
the IP address of the external interface the virtual IP will be using.
However, the external IP address must be routed to the selected
interface. The virtual IP address and the external IP address can be
on different subnets. When you add the virtual IP, the external
interface responds to ARP requests for the external IP address.
Map to IP/IP Range The IP address of the server on the internal network. Since there is
only one IP address, leave the second field blank.
