The virtual server service is a way to simulate multiple servers on the
intranet. You have several IP addresses within your LAN. These IPs are
not visible to the users from the Internet. When servers are installed in the
office that need to be seen from the Internet, we establish some
forwarding rules to deal with the packet from the Internet users and direct
the SA to forward the specific packets to the specific IP address. Users
from the Internet could be allowed to access the specific server on your
LAN. You can configure different IPs to act as different virtual servers. For
example, the users accessing port 21 will be directed to “172.16.2.1”.
“172.16.2.1” could be a FTP server. Users accessing port 80 will be
directed to “172.16.2.2”, an HTTP server on the LAN. For users outside
the LAN, they will feel like many services are running on a single host.
