In the Local IP address field, enter the IP address of the PC which provides the 
service.
Example: The Web server has been configured to react to requests on port 8080. 
However, requests from websites enter by port 80 (default setting). If you add the 
PC to the forwarding table and define port 80 as the public port and port 8080 as an 
internal port, all requests from the Internet are diverted to the service with port 
number 80 on the Web server of the PC you have defined with port 8080.

Opening the firewall for selected PCs (Exposed Host)
You can set up a client as an exposed host in your local network. Your device will then 
forward all incoming data traffic from the Internet to this client. This will enable you, for 
example, to operate your own Web server on one of the clients in your local network 
and make it accessible to Internet users.
As an exposed host, your local client is directly visible on the Internet and therefore 
particularly exposed to risk (e.g. from hacker attacks). You should only activate this 
function where it is absolutely necessary (e.g. to operate a Web server) and where 
other functions (e.g. port forwarding) are not adequate. In this case you should take 
appropriate measures on the clients concerned.
ì
To set up a PC as an Exposed Host, select Exposed Host in the Address Translation 
(NAT)
 menu.
ì
Enter the Local IP address of the PC that is to be enabled as Exposed Host.
ì
Enter a name for the PC in the Comment field.
ì
Enable the entry by selecting the option.
Note:
Only one PC per public IP address can be set up as Exposed Host (see also the section 
entitled "Port Forwarding" on page 59.
