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,
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.

Of course there is ... each BR500 (and BR200) can be managed locally to some extent from a Web browser. Consult the fine BR500 documentation please, chapter "Manage custom firewall traffic rules". The same documentation certinly also shows on how to access the router Web user interface ...
An existing port forwarding for 22/TCP does not prohibit anything.

I have tried to use the traffic rules but the port column is dimmed that I cannot type the port range or only port 22.
