This document provides a step by step procedure to configure port forwarding in RAM/SN series routers.
SN 6000 / RAM 6000 / RAM 9000
Port Forwarding (Host Redirect) rules help to permit ports on external, untrusted interfaces to be passed to ports on internal hosts on the same or different ports. This allows multiple devices such as HMI, PLC etc. which have different IP addresses on a LAN to be accessed by a single internet IP address.
