5. I need to set up a server behind my Gateway.
To use a server like a web, ftp, or mail server, you need to know the respective
port numbers they are using. For example, port 80 (HTTP) is used for web,
port 21 (FTP) is used for FTP, and port 25 (SMTP outgoing) and port 110
(POP3 incoming) are used for the mail server. You can get more information
by viewing the documentation provided with the server you installed. Follow
these steps to set up port forwarding through the Gateway's web-based utility.
We will be setting up web, ftp, and mail servers.
A. Access the Gateway's web-based utility by going to http://192.168.100.1
or IP address of the Gateway. Go to the Advanced => Forwarding tab.
B. Enter the Port range of the service you are using. For example, if you have
a web server, you would enter the range 80 to 80.
C. Check the protocol you will be using, TCP, UDP or Both.
D. Enter the IP address of the PC or network device that you want the port
server to go to. For example, if the web server's Ethernet adapter IP
address is 192.168.100.2, you would enter 2 in the field provided. The 0 is
to disable port service.
When you have completed the configuration, click the Apply button.
6. I need to set up online game hosting or use other Internet
applications.
If you want to play online games or use Internet applications, most will work
without doing any port forwarding or DMZ hosting. There may be cases when
you want to host an online game or Internet application. This would require
you to set up the Gateway to deliver incoming packets or data to a specific
computer. This also applies to the Internet applications you are using. The
best way to get the information on what port services to use is to go to the
website of the online game or application you want to use. Follow these steps
to set up online game hosting or use a certain Internet application:
A. Access the Gateway's web-based utility by going to http://192.168.100.1
or IP address of the Gateway. Go to the Advanced => Forwarding tab.
B. Enter the Port range of the service you are using. For example, if you want
to host Unreal Tournament (UT), you would enter the range 7777 to 27900.
C. Check the protocol you will be using, TCP, UDP or Both.
