Super G Wireless Router WGT624 v4 User Manual
5-2 Advanced Configuration
v1.0, July 2008
You can use the Port Forwarding menu to configure the router to forward 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. The DMZ
Server is configured in the WAN Setup Menu.
Before starting, determine which type of service, application or game you will provide and the IP
address of the computer that will provide each service. Be sure the computer’s IP address never
changes. To configure port forwarding to a local server:
1. From the Service Name list, select the service or game that you will host on your network.
If the service does not appear in the list, see the following section, “Adding a Port-Forwarding
Custom Service”.
2. Enter the IP address of the local server in the corresponding Server IP Address field.
3. Click Add.
Adding a Port-Forwarding Custom Service
To define a service, game, or application that does not appear in the Service Name list, you must
determine what port numbers are used by the service. For this information, you might need to
contact the manufacturer of the program that you wish to use. When you have the port number
information, follow these steps:
1. Click Add Custom Service.
2. Enter the first port number in an unused Starting Port field.
3. To forward only one port, enter it again in the Ending Port field. To specify a range of ports,
enter the last port to be forwarded in the End Port field.
4. Enter the IP address of the local server in the corresponding Server IP Address field.
5. Type a name for the service.
6. Click Apply.
Editing or Deleting a Port-Forwarding Entry
To edit or delete a port forwarding entry:
1. In the table, select the button next to the service name.
2. Click Edit Service or Delete Service.
