The Applications and Gaming Tab - Single Port Forwarding
Single Port Forwarding
The Single Port Forwarding screen provides options for customization of port services for common applications.
When users send this type of request to your network via the Internet, the Router will forward those requests to
the appropriate computer. Any computer whose port is being forwarded should have its DHCP client function
disabled and should have a new static IP address assigned to it because its IP address may change when using
the DHCP function.
Select the pre-configured Application, or manually enter it in the field. Then, enter the External and Internal Port
numbers in the fields. Select the type of protocol you wish to use for each application: TCP, UDP, or Both. Enter
the IP Address in the field. Click Enabled to enable Forwarding for the chosen application.
When finished making your changes on this tab, click the Save Settings button to save these changes, or click
the Cancel Changes button to undo your changes.
