4.14.1 Virtual Servers
Choose menu “Forwarding” → “Virtual Servers”, and then you can view and add virtual servers
in the next screen (shown in Figure 4-71). Virtual servers can be used for setting up public
services on your LAN. A virtual serve
r is defined as a service port, and all requests from Internet
to this service port will be redirected to the computer specified by the server IP. Any PC that was
used for a virtual server must have a static or reserved IP address because its IP address may
change when using the DHCP function.
