2. In the Port Forwarding Enabled field, select Enable.
3. Click “Add More” to display a rule line.
4. Set the port range for incoming data:
a. In the Public Start Port field, enter the desired public network port
number. Values between 1 and 65535 are supported, although Sierra
Wireless recommends using a value greater than 1024.
b. In the Public Port End field, enter the last public network port number in
the range. The value you enter in the Public Port End field must be
greater than the value in the Public Start Port field, or ALEOS rejects the
selection.
Unsolicited data coming in on ports in this range are forwarded to a range
of ports, starting with the port you select in the Private Start Port field.
5. Select the desired protocol (see Protocol on page 136):
· TCP
· UDP
· TCP &UDP
6. Enter the IP address of the computer you want to forward data to.
7. In the Private Start Port field, enter the starting port number for the range of
ports on the destination computer that you want to forward data to.
8. Click Apply.
9. Reboot.
You do not need to reboot immediately, if you have additional changes to
make, but port forwarding does not take effect until the device is rebooted.
Note: Sierra Wireless recommends that the total number of port forwardings be fewer than
1000 ports, including single port forwarding and port forwarding within a range.
