The IP Protocol setting, along with the Port setting, specifies the protocol of the
service as TCP, UDP, ICMP, or IP. Traffic that is received by the Pepwave router via
the specified protocol at the specified port(s) is forwarded to the LAN hosts specified
by the Servers setting. Please see below for details on the Port and Servers
settings. Alternatively, the Protocol Selection Tool drop-down menu can be used to
automatically fill in the protocol and a single port number of common Internet services
(e.g. HTTP, HTTPS, etc.). After selecting an item from the Protocol Selection Tool
drop-down menu, the protocol and port number remain manually modifiable.
The Port setting specifies the port(s) that correspond to the service, and can be
configured to behave in one of the following manners:
Any Port , Single Port , Port Range , Port Map , and Range Mapping
Any Port : all traffic that is received by the Pepwave router via the specified protocol is
forwarded to the servers specified by the Servers setting. For example, with IP
Protocol set to TCP , and Port set to Any Port , all TCP traffic is forwarded to the
configured servers.
Single Port : traffic that is received by the Pepwave router via the specified protocol at
the specified port is forwarded via the same port to the servers specified by the
Servers setting. For example, with IP Protocol set to TCP , and Port set to Single
Port and Service Port 80, TCP traffic received on port 80 is forwarded to the
configured servers via port 80.
Port Range : traffic that is received by the Pepwave router via the specified protocol at
the specified port range is forwarded via the same respective ports to the LAN hosts
specified by the Servers setting. For example, with IP Protocol set to TCP , and Port
set to Port Range and Service Ports 80-88, TCP traffic received on ports 80 through
88 is forwarded to the configured servers via the respective ports.
Port Mapping : traffic that is received by Pepwave router via the specified protocol at
the specified port is forwarded via a different port to the servers specified by the
Servers setting.
For example, with IP Protocol set to TCP , and Port set to Port Mapping , Service
Port 80, and Map to Port 88, TCP traffic on port 80 is forwarded to the configured
servers via port 88.
(Please see below for details on the Servers setting.)
Range Mapping : traffic that is received by the Pepwave router via the specified
protocol at the specified port range is forwarded via a different port to the servers
specified by the Servers setting.
