WiNG AP510 Port Forwarding

oxoyoz — Thu, 17 Mar 2022 22:23:27 GMT

Hi,
I am using AP510 as router + AP setting currently. The AP currently runs with 7.6.X firmware.
A device connected to AP510 needs to have a 19XXX port (TCP and UDP) forwarded, so that its locally-stored content can be access from external IPs.
Does AP510 offer port forwarding function? If yes, where can I enable this function? ( CLI command / GUI both work )
Thanks for your help in advance.

Hello,

Here are some instructions you can try.

PORT FORWARDING:

Configuration >> Devices >> Device Overrides >> Select the AP >> Security >> NAT >> Static NAT >> Destination >> Add:
Protocol: ANY
Destination IP: WAN address (example: 10.0.0.1, address people are going to go to)
NAT IP: Is the server or computer you want to reach, example 192.168.1.100
Network: Outside
OK > Exit > Commit and Save

Rgds,

Thanks Chris!
My WAN IP address is dynamic. Is it possible to set the WAN IPN as any, instead of a static address?

There is no option for same. This is not supported.

Hi Chris,

Just want to let you know that your method worked. As long as my WAN IP doesn't change (if it does, then I will have to update NAT rules...), I can access my device from external IPs.
Thanks again.
