Forwarding a port from any external to specific workstation internally
Hello
Is there a page that lists how to create a port forward from from any external port 60999 to a single IP on the trusted side with the same port number?
Thanks!

Not for the Web UI yet.
You need to set up a SNAT and set up a custom packet filter for TCP port 60999.
If you are using the Web UI, you need to log in using the admin userid & password.
Select Firewall -> Firewall SNAT
Add, enter a name for this
Add
select the public IP addr, type = Internal IP addr, & enter the private IP addr. You do not need to select either check box.
OK, SAVE
Select Firewall -> Firewall Policies
Add Policy
Select Custom, select ADD
enter a name, then ADD
select Single port, TCP, Server port = 60999.
OK, ADD Policy
From: - remove Any-trusted, Add Any-external (or for specific Internet public IP addr(s) to which you want to allow access), OK
To: - remove Any-external, Add - select Member Type = Static NAT, select the SNAT name that you created, OK
Save
Hi Bruce
It looks as if i was able to open that port and with logging enabled and I see it allowing connection.. But unfortunately its not solving my issue.
One of my kids cant use bittorrent on their pc since when I swapped out firewalls for the T40.. I see in the logs that it recognizes the bittorrent series but, people cant leech from her machine. Have you seen any situation like that?
Thanks
Dennis
Sorry, no, as I don't use Bittorrent.
Many recommend using a VPN for Bittorrent connections, which may address the issue.
