4.1 Managing Port forwarding (PNAT)
To set up port forwarding to a specific machine on your internal network:
➔ Click on the “Port forwarders (PNAT)” text under “Setup subsystems” on the
left-hand side of the screen in the “Configuration” context.
The “Manage port forwardings” screen should appear.
4.2 Adding a port forwarding
To add a port to be forwarded:
➔ Click the “Add new” button in the “Manage Port Forwardings” screen.
The screen should change to the “Create Port Forwarding” view.
As an example we will forward traffic to a web server. Web servers use the
HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol) protocol, on TCP port 80.
➔ Choose the “protocol to forward” (TCP, UDP, TCP/UDP or ICMP). In our
example we will use TCP.
➔ Choose the “external port” to forward requests from. This is the port on your
firewall that the clients should use to connect to your internal server. In our
example we will use port 80 (HTTP).
➔ Choose the “Internal host” to forward the selected port to.
➔ If the port you wish to forward traffic to should differ from the “external
port”, enter an “Internal port”. Otherwise leave this field blank.
➔ Press “Next” to confirm.
After adding a port forwarding, the screen will once again change to “Manage
Port forwardings” (see above). The newly added port forwarding is added to the
list of forwardings displayed.
