DSL modem router.
DSL modem router.
2.
Your WiFi DSL modem router receives the request message and looks in its rules table for
any rules covering the disposition of incoming port 80 traffic. Your port forwarding rule
specifies that incoming port 80 traffic should be forwarded to local IP address 192.168.1.123.
Therefore, your WiFi DSL modem router modifies the destination information in the request
message:
The destination address is replaced with 192.168.1.123.
Your WiFi DSL modem router then sends this request message to your local network.

Your web server at 192.168.1.123 receives the request and composes a return message
with the requested web page data. Your web server then sends this reply message to your
WiFi DSL modem router.

Your WiFi DSL modem router performs Network Address Translation (NAT) on the source
IP address, and sends this request message through the Internet to the remote computer,
which displays the web page from www.example.com.
To configure port forwarding, you need to know which inbound ports the application needs.
Usually you can determine this information by contacting the publisher of the application or
