For example, if you want to host a Netmeeting session, from the Home screen, click
advanced select Application, select Port Forwarding. First select the IP address for your
Netmeeting server. Next select the Audio/Video category and add Netmeeting to the
applied rules box. To view the management rules, highlight Netmeeting and select view;
this will display the pre-configured protocols and ports that Netmeeting will use. Now
assuming that your WAN connection is correct, you can run Netmeeting from your server
and call users that are on the Internet. If they know your WAN IP address, users can now
call you. You should remember that Telkom ISP assigns a dynamic IP to your WAN port,
so your WAN IP is regularly changing. If you wish to have users outside the router (on the
internet) connect to a port that you have forwarded, they will have to know the current IP
address of the WAN port. A convenient way to overcome this is to make use of a DDNS
provider (see section on DDNS – 4.5.13).
