4.6 Multi Port Forwarding
Clicking on the “Multi Port Forwarding” sub-heading in the “Advanced” list will take you to the
relevant page. Multi Port Forwarding allows you to route a range of ports to the devices that
are connected to your router. Your internal computers are protected by a firewall, so
computers that are outside your network cannot “see” or reach your computers.
4.6.1 Multi Port Forwarding
To enter settings into Port Forwarding, first select the appropriate service from the “Protocol”
drop-down box. Select an application, enter the IP address and port number for your internal
server into the provided spaces, and click “Apply”. Note: Opening ports in your firewall can
pose a security risk. You can enable and disable settings very quickly. It is recommended that
you disable these settings when you are not using a specific application.
