Creating a Service Based on Specific Port Forwarding Ports
The Port Forwarding feature allows you to forward a range of WAN ports to an IP address on the LAN. You can set
up a port forwarding entry based on your specific ports.
IMPORTANT: Using various Internet applications depends on the Router’s firewall settings. Make sure that the
Router’s firewall is set to Medium Security or lower to take advantage of all the port forwarding features. Firewall
settings take precedence over port forwarding services configured in the Router. For example, if the firewall is set to
Medium Security, this will block ICMP packets even if the ICMP service is enabled. If a port forwarding service is
not working, try setting the firewall to a lower setting.
To create a port forwarding service based on specific port forwarding ports, at the Create Port Forwarding Service
screen, do the following:
1.
Type the name of the custom service that you are creating in the field provided. This will be the name of the
port forwarding service for which you are configuring specific Port Forwarding rules.
2.
Click the Port Forwarding option.
3.
Select the desired protocol from the Protocol drop-down menu.
4.
Enter the desired Global Port Start, Global Port End, and Base Host Port values in the fields provided, as shown
in the example below.
5.
Select the desired direction settings
6.
Click Apply to allow the changes to take effect.
NOTE: If you clicked Cancel in the Create Port Forwarding Service screen, the service you created will be
displayed; however, it will not be activated in your Router. You must click Apply to allow the settings to take effect.

warning screen will display the following message:
Any changes made in this section may affect your device’s performance and configuration.
Do you want to proceed?
Click Yes to proceed.
15.4.1 Enabling DMZ Host
If you clicked Yes, in the preceding warning screen, the following DMZ Host screen will be displayed. The
demilitarized zone (DMZ) feature allows you to select one device on the LAN that will share the WAN-assigned IP
address. By enabling DMZ, the selected device becomes visible on the Internet. Network Address Translation
(NAT) and Firewall rules do not apply to the device configured for DMZ. If you are using Bridge protocol, you will
not be able to configure DMZ Host in the Router.
IMPORTANT:
1.
Before you configure DMZ Host, configure your PC settings to obtain an IP address from VersaLink
automatically. If needed, refer to your computer’s Windows help screen for instructions.
2.
If you have previously enabled Public LAN, you will need to disable Public LAN and enable the DHCP for
Private LAN and the Private LAN settings before you configure DMZ Host.
3.
DMZ Host and Static NAT are mutually exclusive features. Before you enable DMZ Host, confirm that Static
NAT is disabled. If needed, refer to section 15.6.2 for details on disabling Static NAT.
