are the equivalent ports the server on
your local LAN will receive the request.
This command is used to view all of the remote entries, including the changes.

Example 1:
Assume that the local LAN network is 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0. The following commands are typed to
enable a Telnet server on the local LAN with the IP address 192.168.1.3, and an FTP server with the IP
address 192.168.1.2.
remote addServer 192.168.1.3 tcp telnet router1
remote addServer 192.168.1.2 tcp ftp router1
When receiving a request from
router1
to communicate with the local Telnet server, the local router will
send the request to 192.168.1.3. If
router1
asks to talk to the local FTP server, the local router will send
the request to 192.168.1.2.
Example 2:
Assume that the local LAN network is 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0. When the port value of 0 (zero) is
used, it directs all ports of the specified protocol to the IP address specified.
remote addServer 192.168.1.4 tcp 0 router1
Note: addserver
commands using specific port numbers take priority over the port # 0 setting.
192.168.1.4 will be asked to serve requests coming from
router1
to the local router. If the local
router also has the same Telnet and FTP entries from the previous example, 192.168.1.3 will serve
the Telnet request, 192.168.1.2 will serve the FTP request, and 192.168.1.4 will serve any other
request, including HTTP, SMTP, etc.
Example 3:
remote addServer 192.168.1.10 tcp 9000 9000 telnet route-in
remote addServer 192.168.1.11 tcp 9001 9001 telnet route-in
In this example, an incoming request on tcp port 9000 will be sent to 192.168.1.10 with the port changed
from 9000 to the telnet (port 23).
An incoming request on tcp port 9001 will be sent to 192.168.1.11 with the port changed from 9001 to
the telnet port.
“Failed to add server” error message
The error message
“Failed to add server"
is printed if a server entry could not be created. Possible
reasons are as follows:
