By default, the router’s network address translation (NAT) firewall will block unrecognized 
incoming packets from the Internet (WAN) to protect internal clients on the LAN and WLAN. To 
allow direct external access for specific Internet services, use the Virtual Server capability. 
 
For example, if you have FTP, web and VPN servers on your local network, you could define 
them as follows: 
 

FTP 1 

21 

192.168.123.1 

Yes 

0 

Web 2 

80 

192.168.123.2 

Yes 

0 

VPN 3 

1723 

192.168.123.3 

Yes 

0 

 

 

 
Using the menus at the bottom of the page, define each server. 

1.  Select a service from the drop-down menu. 
2.  Choose a schedule rule. Rule 0 is always on. (Custom rules are defined in Security

Copy to. 

 
Tip: The inbound packet filters will protect Virtual Servers. See Security Settings > Packet Filters.  
Tip: Rules are scheduled in Advanced Settings > Schedule Rule.
