Whitelisting IP addresses for external scan ER605
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I have set up 2 LANs, one with a POS card payment machine. I am required to allow 3 IP addresses to be whitelisted to allow for external vulnerability scanning. On my previous router I could set this in the firewall, however I am unclear as to how to do this on the ER605. Is it done via a Gateway ACL rule, which seems to be for LAN-to-WAN access rather than allowing WAN-to-LAN access, or via the URL whitelisting section under the Network Security tab? I assume that, either way, these can be allowed to scan the card payment LAN (176.16.0.x) rather than the main LAN (192.168.0.x)?
Thanks for any help on this.
Hi@TT27,
If you are using the Controller, please use the WAN-IN as a Direction for your incoming connection.
To set up the port forwarding, please make sure you follow this guide:How to set up Port Forwarding feature on TP-Link SMB Router (new UI) The setup process is quite similar to the controller.
If you failed to make the port open, please refer to Why virtual server (port forwarding) feature is not working on your TP-Link Business router?
