      Hello

      I am trying to setup a rule that will allow me to web access a netgear device which is behind the firewall. Firewall has a public IP, the netgear a private IP. I can access the netgear through port 8080. When I try to setup a rule for accessing the netgear, it only allows access through port 80 or 443. Can you give me an idea on how to set this up?

      Thanks

      Stephen Keating

        It's literally just one NAT port-forward rule and one firewall rule.  The NAT rule defines the translation and the firewall rule allows it to pass traffic.
