Multiple WAN IP Addresses ?
Region : UnitedKingdom
Model : TD-W8980
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version :
ISP :
Hello there,
My ISP provides multiple WAN IP addresses. I just bought a TD-W8980 and am trying to replicate the configuration I had on my Draytek router.
I want to redirect SMTP traffic to/from one external IP address to a mail server inside my network. I therefore need to set up a virtual interface or alias on the WAN connection with the external IP address for my mail server. I then need to open specific ports on this external IP address and route the traffic to/from the internal mail server.
I have been through the FAQ entries but they relate to opening port(s) on the default WAN IP address and to not consider creating an alias and opening a port on this alias WAN IP.
Any advice greatly appreciated.
