Port forwarding
I have port forwarding set from external IP:port Y to internal IP:port X. However in my Netgear logfile I see that independent of port Y, the whole range of external ports are forwarded to internal IP-B:port X.
In my opinion if it is not port Y it should be blocked and not get forwarded at all. Am I right or did I overlook something?

Would be helpful to see a screen capture of the port forwarding rule and some of those log entries.
