Local Web and FTP Server Example If a local PC with a private IP address of 192.168.1.33 acts as a Web and FTP server, configure the Port Forwarding menu to forward HTTP (port 80) and FTP (port 21) to local address 192.168.1.33. In order for a remote user to access this server from the Internet, the remote user must know the IP address that has been assigned by your ISP. If this address is 172.16.1.23, for example, an Internet user can access your Web server by directing the browser to http://172.16.1.23. The assigned IP address can be found in the Maintenance Status Menu, where it is shown as the WAN IP Address.
