BR500 port forwarding for specific ip
Hi Experts, We have a BR500 router and a linux server at the back end. The vendor support need to access this linux server with port 22. But this server is also a web server that will allow port 80...

Thanks Schumaku,
I know I can setup the port forwarding for port 22 to the linux server, but after I set this rule, the router log will show a lot of DoS Scan attack to this server from other IP. So I hope I can only allow a particular IP to access this server and deny all other access for port 22 .
Is it possible?
Thanks.
As mentioned, Insight might not support this, however you can use the local device UI to configure firewall rules.

Thanks Schumaku,
May I know how to access the local device UI? Somthing like telnet or Putty?
Using a Web browser of course.

Thanks, but I have setup the port forwarding of port 22 and will open for all connections. Seems there is no solution for this model.
