5. 6. Forwarding
The router’s NAT (Network Address Translation) feature makes devices on the LAN
use the same public IP address to communicate with devices on the Internet, which
protects the local network by hiding IP addresses of the local devices. However, it also
brings about the problem that an external host cannot initiatively communicate with a
specified device on the local network.
With the forwarding feature, the router can traverse the isolation of NAT and allows
external hosts on the Internet to initiatively communicate with devices on the local
network, thus realizing some special functions.
The TP-LINK router supports four forwarding rules. If two or more rules are set, the
priority of implementation from high to low is Virtual Servers, Port Triggering, UPNP
and DMZ..
5. 6. 1. Virtual Servers
When you build up a server on the local network and want to share it on the Internet,
Virtual Servers can realize the service and provide it to Internet users. At the same time
Virtual Servers can keep the local network safe as other services are still invisible from
the Internet.
