Mapped IP Internal private IP addresses are translated through NAT (Network Address Translation). If a server is located in the internal network, it has a private IP address, and outside users cannot connect directly to internal servers' private IP address. To connect to an internal network server, outside users have to first connect to a real IP address of the external network, and the real IP is translated to a private IP of the internal network. Mapped IP and Virtual Server are the two methods to translate the real IP into private IP. Mapped IP maps IP in one-to-one fashion; that means, all services of one real external IP address is mapped to one private internal IP address. Entering the Mapped IP window: Click Mapped IP under the Virtual Server menu bar and the Mapped IP configuration window will appear. 98
