D6200 WiFi DSL Modem Router
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/Port Triggering screen to co
nfig
ure the WiFi DSL modem 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, you need to determine which type of service, application, or game you want
to provide,
and the local IP address of the computer that provides the service. The server
computer has to always have the same IP address.
Tip: To ensure that your server computer always has the same IP address,
u
se the reserved IP address feature of your WiFi DSL modem router.
To set up port forwarding:
1. Select ADVANCED
> Advanced Setup > Port Forwarding/Port Triggering.
Port Forwarding is selected as the service type.
