Section 3 - Configuration
Virtual Server
The DIR-615 can be configured as a virtual server so that remote users accessing Web or FTP services via the public
IP address can be automatically redirected to local servers in the LAN (Local Area Network).
The DIR-615 firewall feature filters out unrecognized
packets to protect your LAN network so all computers
networked with the DIR-615 are invisible to the outside
world. If you wish, you can make some of the LAN
computers accessible from the Internet by enabling
Virtual Server. Depending on the requested service,
the DIR-615 redirects the external service request to
the appropriate server within the LAN network.
The DIR-615 is also capable of port-redirection
meaning incoming traffic to a particular port may
be redirected to a different port on the server
computer.
Each virtual service that is created will be listed at the
bottom of the screen in the Virtual Servers List. There are
pre-defined virtual services already in the table. You
may use them by enabling them and assigning the
server IP to use that particular virtual service.
