Manage port forwarding to a local server for
services and applications
If a server is part of your network, you can allow certain types of incoming traffic to reach
the server. For example, you might want to make a local web server, FTP server, or game
server visible and available to the Internet.
The router can forward incoming traffic with specific protocols to computers on your
local network. You can specify the servers for applications and you can also specify a
default DMZ server to which the router forwards all other incoming protocols (see Set
up a default DMZ server on page 48).
Forward incoming traffic for a default service or application
You can forward traffic for a default service or application to a computer on your network.
To forward incoming traffic for a default service or application:
1.
Decide which type of service, application, or game you want to provide.
2.
Find the local IP address of the computer on your network that will provide the
service.
The server computer must always receive the same IP address. To specify this setting,
use the reserved IP address feature. See Manage reserved LAN IP addresses on
page 85.
3.
Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
router network.
4.
Enter https://www.routerlogin.net.
Your browser might display a security message, which you can ignore. For more
information, see Log in to the local browser interface on page 16.
A login window opens.
5. Enter the router user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified when you set
up your router. If you didn’t change the password, enter password. The user name
and password are case-sensitive.
The Dashboard displays.
6.
Select ADVANCED > Firewall > Port Forwarding / Port Triggering.
The Port Forwarding / Port Triggering page displays.
