Simple IP based port triggering

Question

Hello,&nbsp;I have 3 incoming port setup for port forwarding.They are used to send print jobs form a supporting company to some local printers.the same port(s) being used on both ends, so that was very simple to setup (printers also have fixed IPs).&nbsp;I am wondering how to lock down the port forwarding to only allow forwards from Specific IPs.&nbsp;If I were doing a Unix (IPFW) rule, what I might currently have is&nbsp;&nbsp;allow all TCP from ALL 9104 to 192.167.0.10 9104&nbsp;What I really want is something like:&nbsp;allow ALL from 10.11.12.13 9104 TO 192.168.1.10 9104&nbsp;Is this possible?we are using a Nighthawk RAX70.&nbsp;

Hello,&nbsp;I have 3 incoming port forwarding rules to allow remote IPs (WAN) to connect to 3 specific printers on the internal network. Of course, the port forwarding rules open those ports for all incoming (WAN) connections.I am wanting to create some ACL rules to limit access to those ports form the specific remote IPs only.Is this possible through the Nighthawk ACL facility?
