Is it possible to forward more than one port to a single port? (Or, how can I do this?)

Hi everyone,   I have a service running on a port (let's say 9999).  I can forward 9999 external to 9999 internal.  But, what I would like to do is to forward anything that comes in on 80 or 9999 (...

    (2 or more) external ports - (1) internal port - (2 or more) IP address (this should work)

    (2 or more) external ports - (1) internal port - (single) IP address (NO!!!)

Hi eric_bor,

 

Correct me if I am wrong. You wanted to open one port number for a service which will be used by multiple devices. If yes, you can configure it by changing the external port to a different port number and set the same internal port number.
