HTTP uses Port 80. FTP uses Port 21. Port Forwarding is telling the router to forward traffic on specific ports to specific computers on the network. • You can only forward one port to one computer. You would use other technology for load balancing or fault tolerance. • One Router can port numerous different ports to different computers. • All small Business Routers have different configuration screens. • If you are using Residential Internet Service your ISP MAY block certain ports such as Port 80. • Make sure to hit SAVE. If you don not save the configuration the Router will not forward the ports. • Do not mistake Configuration for Physical Ports with the Configuration screen for Networking Ports. • Resources • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_for...
