This feature, sometimes called Port Forwarding, allows you to make Servers on your LAN 
accessible to Internet users. Normally, Internet users would not be able to access a server on 
your LAN because: 

• 

Your Server does not have a valid external IP Address. 

• 

Attempts to connect to devices on your LAN are blocked by the firewall in this device. 

The "Virtual Server" feature solves these problems and allows Internet users to connect to your 
servers, as illustrated below. 

 

Note that, in this illustration, both Internet users are connecting to the same IP Address, but 
using different protocols. 

This address should be static, rather than dynamic, to make it easier for Internet users to con-
nect to your Servers. 
However, you can use the DDNS (Dynamic DNS) feature to allow users to connect to your 
Virtual Servers using a URL, instead of an IP Address.
