Application Example: Making a Local Web Server Public
If you host a web server on your local network, you can use port forwarding to allow web
requests from anyone on the Internet to reach your web server.
To make a local web server public:

In this example, your WiFi DSL modem router always gives you

address of 192.168.1.33.
