Set Up Port Forwarding to Local Servers
Using the port forwarding feature, you can allow certain types of incoming traffic to reach
servers on your local network. For example, you might want to make a local web server, FTP
server, or game server visible and available to the Internet.
Use the Port Forwarding screen to configure the router to forward specific incoming protocols
to computers on your local network. In addition to servers for specific applications, you can
also specify a default DMZ server to which all other incoming protocols are forwarded.
Before starting, determine which type of service, application, or game you want to provide.
Find out the local IP address of the computer that will provide the service.
The server
computer has to always have the same IP address.
To set up port forwarding:
Tip: T

Router.
