Rule Name - Enter a convenient reference or description for the rule. Each rule
must have a unique name, which can be up to 10 characters.
Internal Server IP - Enter the IP address of the intended internal server (i.e.
on LAN side of IPn3Gb). This is the IP address given to the device connected
to the IPn3Gb Ethernet port. The IP address must be based on the default IP
gateway and IP subnet mask of the IPn3Gb, which can be reviewed under the
Network > Config tabs.

Configuration Utility software under the given device.
x The IPn3Gb should be active on an account with a service provider.
x You will need to be able to configure the IPn3Gb.
Example of Port Forwarding using the IPn3Gb
Example 1:
In the example highlighted below we have configured the IPn3Gb and all
related equipment to allow for the simultaneous connection of 2 dataloggers to
the modem. The first datalogger, a CR200X, is connected directly to the data
