    Prerequisites
    Understand TCP/IP and Networking
    Purpose of Class
    This class shows students how to setup Port Forwarding on a Small Business Router and explains why Port Forwarding is important.
    Class Notes
    All networking protocols use specific pots. HTTP uses Port 80. FTP uses Port 21. Port Forwarding is telling the router to forward traffic on specific ports to specific computers on the network.
    You can only forward one port to one computer. You would use other technology for load balancing or fault tolerance.
    One Router can port numerous different ports to different computers.
    All small Business Routers have different configuration screens.
    If you are using Residential Internet Service your ISP MAY block certain ports such as Port 80.
    Make sure to hit SAVE. If you don not save the configuration the Router will not forward the ports.
    Do not mistake Configuration for Physical Ports with the Configuration screen for Networking Ports.

    Красавчик! Идеальное произношение на английском. Понятно всё до единого слова. И очень хорошо объясняет, затрагивая простые моменты, о которых никто никогда не говорит, но которые могут быть причиной проблем и потерянного времени.
    Спасибо большое!

    Eli , thank you very much on your video. You are great. I'm in the security alarm industry . And I was never a computer guy. And as we all know now it's all about knowing computers. Especially now on ip cameras and nvr's . In high demand . You saved me a ton of money on taking a computer class to just learn port forwarding. For all DVR and NVR ip cameras. Thanks again

    • @JohirulIslam-lm2vz
      @JohirulIslam-lm2vz 4 роки тому

      Port is basically the connecting point/hub between a user and a server (to serve a specific service). An admin can configure & reconfigure and map port to access a service. To avoid the conflict, services have some sort of reserve port. For example, 3306 port is basically reserved for MySQL database. Anyone can run any web application on this port if it is free. Such randomness causes for difficulties and erroneous. That's why it's better to follow the reservation rules to avoid such problems. I think ELI configured his FTP to 25 that's why told that.

    @hopeformeyet 11 років тому

    I don't know if the most awesome Eli covered this in the video, but to get port 80 working on my web server, I had to go into the web admin of my cable modem, putting incoming port 80 requests forwarded to WAN address of my router eg: 192.168.1.02, and then go into the router and put incoming 80 requests to the IP of my web server, eg: 192.168.2.103... I hope this helps. Eli, THANK YOU for your awesome service! I learn SO much.

    Another great video! Do this stuff all day at work and got stumped a lil today...this darn Westell couldn't handle it well, even though all was correct, then had to forward to the host name option instead. Zenmap immediately showed open. Good note on the Business vs Residential account. I am still learning...but had to go to NAT or Virtual Servers on some models do the exact same thing. Looking forward to more Networking videos. Very educational!! Thanx!

    @j7ndominica051 9 років тому

    MikroTik has conditional dst-nat where you could define that it should happen only for certain source addresses from a list or destination ips, or other conditions to implement load balancing. This enables us to make different clients see different services on the same port, or forward 2 public ips (if we have them) to 2 web servers without assigning those ips exclusively to the servers themselves. Most config happens via GUI.

    Hey Eli, I have been setting up port forwarding since 6 months, & really it has kept me up for nights...at first I didn't had a broadband connection, and that's why I got one, and now they gave me a static IP (the ISPs), but yet its a real pain for me.
    I have checked on yougetsignal and also portforward checker application, It really shows that specific port is open (after forwarding ports on router page). After reading that, I felt great great relief. But, when I opened the game, & it showed me "cant connect to the server". I just completely lost faith in myself. I dont understand what to do more. I turned off firewalls, and also added the ports to windows firewall. But, not a single game I am able to play online.
    I have watched many of your videos, & I know you are one of the most competent guys in this field. I was hoping if you could solve my problem. Actually, I am very much tired of typing all this issue on several forums, and what not. But, not have yet found a resolution.Thank you for reading this..
