Hello all,
I've tried setting up port forwarding through my SSG5 which I just acquired.
I'm not an IT-er by trade, but an educator/teacher of mathematics & entry-level IT. I managed to set up port forwarding on my network succesfully without the SSG5, but after adding the device between my router and PC acting as server, I can't seem to get it to work.
I set up custom services for the ports I need open and forwarded under 'Policies > Policy elements > Services > Custom', added policies to allow traffic from modem's IP through SSG5 client IP to the PC, with specified services/ports specified.
Under DHCP, SSG5 has Untrust IP set to DHCP client (I've reserved the IP in modem) and I've set the client IP of the PC as reserved.
Under interfaces, for Untrust I've added a VIP (using untrust client IP) forwarding the ports to the PC's client IP.
However when I check if the ports are open (with open port checker/portforward), they stay closed.
I've added my config file to this post, hoping someone can guide me to the solution.
I followed the steps given here:
