Protocol 
Select the transport layer protocol (TCP or UDP). 
Public Port   
Specify which port can be redirected to the specified Private IP 
and Port
 of the internal host. 
Private IP 
Specify the private IP address of the internal host providing the 
service. 
Private Port 
Specify the private port number of the service offered by the 
internal host. 
Active 
Check this box to activate the port-mapping entry you have 
defined. 
Note that the router has its own built-in services (servers) such as Telnet, HTTP and FTP etc. 
Since the common port numbers of these services (servers) are all the same, you may need to 
reset the router’s in order to avoid confliction. 
For example, the built-in web configurator in the router is with default port 80, which may 
conflict with the web server in the local network, http://192.168.1.13:80. Therefore, you need 
to change the router’s http port to any one other than the default port 80 to avoid 
conflict, such as 8080. This can be set in the System Maintenance >>Management Setup
You then will access the admin screen of by suffixing the IP address with 8080, e.g., 
http://192.168.1.1:8080 instead of port 80.

As mentioned above, Port Redirection can redirect incoming TCP/UDP or other traffic on 
particular ports to the specific private IP address/port of host in the LAN. However, other IP 
protocols, for example Protocols 50 (ESP) and 51 (AH), do not travel on a fixed port. Vigor 
router provides a facility DMZ Host that maps ALL unsolicited data on any protocol to a 
single host in the LAN. Regular web surfing and other such Internet activities from other 
clients will continue to work without inappropriate interruption. DMZ Host allows a defined 
internal user to be totally exposed to the Internet, which usually helps some special 
applications such as Netmeeting or Internet Games etc.
