8.6.1 Port Forwarding
By default, the firewall function of the router hides your LAN. As a result, other users on
the Internet can detect only the router, but cannot access a certain PC in the LAN directly.
If you want to access a PC in an LAN, you need to configure port forwarding for the router
and map the desired port to the corresponding PC in the LAN. The router forwards
packets to the PC according to the port mapping rule after receiving an access request
from the Internet. In this way, communication is successfully established between the
Internet and the PC in the LAN.
Choose Network Application > Port Forwarding and the Port Forwarding page is
displayed.
