Port Question

[Stephen Quinn Barncard]

This is called IP Tunneling. You can designate your outside world IP 
to map any port number to any one local IP number/machine. This is 
done with the router software. On Lynksys and many other routers they 
are web based.

Different port numbers can go to one machine or several, but only one 
port of that number can be seen by the outside world, where the 
router looks like one computer. In other words, you can only have one 
default numbered http server, one ftp server, one real server, etc 
that is visible to the outside world.
