MN-500 Port Forwarding Need Help!

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.broadbandnet.hardware (More info?)

Hi,


Go to your Base Station Management Tool, then go to Security, then click on
Port Forwarding then click on the Set up persistent port forwarding.
Then type in the following:

Put a checkmark box on the enable checkmark box then
Description: Web Server or (whatever else you want to name it)
Inbound port: 80-80
Type: TCP
Private IP address: the IP address of your internal computer
Private port: 80-80

This is assuming your IIS web server's port is on 80, if it's something else
then put in the respective port number in the inbound and on the private
port
Then scroll down and hit the Apply button.

Then try it out to see if it works.
