2011 Apr 23 - Thanks Rizvanrp for highlighting the Out-Interface setting in order for the port forward to work properly! Smile

 


 

Go to IP --> Firewall

Select NAT tab, click Add to create new port forwarding

Enter relevant information at General tab as follows:

Note: Enter Dst.Address only if you require to forward external fix IP

Enter relevant information at Action tab as follows, click OK when done:

 

Noticed that the new port forward rule has been setup:

 

 

 


 

If have a lot of port forwarding rules, may consider codes entry, just open Terminal window and enter codes according to the following pattern.

 

Port forward without external fix IP (most commonly use):

/ip firewall nat add chain=dstnat protocol=tcp dst-port=12345 \ action=dst-nat to-addresses=yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy to-ports=12345

 

Port forward with external fix IP:

/ip firewall nat add chain=dstnat dst-address=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx protocol=tcp dst-port=12345 \ action=dst-nat to-addresses=yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy to-ports=12345

 

where:

12345 = is your desire port number
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx = external fix IP
yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy = local IP (eg, 192.168.88.20)
