Port Forwarding

This page has been added since firmware v4.6. For older firmware versions, please refer to Firewall.

On the left side of web Admin Panel -> NETWORK -> Port Forwarding

This page allows you to set firewall rules like DMZ and Port Forwarding.

For Open Ports on Router settings, please go to SYSTEM -> Security.

DMZ

DMZ lets you to expose one computer to the Internet, so all inbound packets will be redirected to this computer.

Toggle on Enable DMZ. Select the internal IP address of your host device, which is going to receive all the inbound packets.

You can set the priority for the DMZ. If the DMZ priority is higher than the port forwarding rules, all port forwarding rules will be invalidated. Otherwise, requests will be forwarded to the DMZ Host device only if the accessed port has no corresponding port forwarding rule.
