So in the router settings, just create a rule for machine "192.168.0.254", sending all router traffic on external port "4567" to go to internal port "8080", on machine "192.168.0.254" of course.
Obviously, fill in your own values instead. |
oh, so, let me try this. My ducks thingy is
http://mylibrary.duckdns.org so do i just then make up a four digit number say for example 4567 and add it thus.
http://mylibrary.duckdns.org:4567 and then this becomes what you call a "external port"
And then, the calibre port, which i have changed to 8090 for example, is the "internal port" and finally, the computer running the server is 192.168.1.6 so that is the machine.
In the router i have the following boxes in port forwarding
Server Name : (do I just put calibre?)
Schedule : (Always, maybe?)
View Available Schedules
Server IP Address : (?)
External Port Start (?)
External Port End (?)
Protocol (TCP maybe?)
Internal Port Start (?)
Internal Port End (?)
Remote Ip (?)
