Port forwarding
Port forwarding enables you to set up a server connected to the terminal while
the terminal is in Router mode. Without port forwarding it would not be
possible to contact the server from the internet.
For information on how to set the terminal in Router mode, see Setting up the
network user groups on page 113.
The following example shows how to allow internet access to a mail server
(smtp) connected to the terminal.
The mail server in this example has the IP address 192.168.0.100.
1. Select LAN > Port forwarding in the left navigation pane.
2. Select Enabled to generally enable port forwarding.
3. Type in the Incoming port range.
4. Type in the Destination IP address, which in this example is the IP address
of the mail server: 192.168.0.100.
