Question:
Webserver behind D-Link wireless router
Asked by:
I have installed my D-Link DI-524 wireless router, but on one of my existing computers behind the router I have a running webserver. How to configure the router so I can still access the webserver by IP from outside?
Answer by:
First you have to make a Static DHCP Client record in:
D-Link Admin Module -> Home -> DHCP
Static DHCP is used to allow DHCP server to assign the same IP to specific MAC address.
Name :This is name referencing the static IP assignment. Enter some.
IP Address :The IP address for the specific node in LAN.
MAC Address :The MAC address of the specific node in LAN.
or DHCP Client :You can select from this list to choose the node you want to assign static IP to.
There is no need to enter the chosen IP in your webserver computer.
The second step is to forward the http and https requests to that IP. You can do this by following:
D-Link Admin Module -> Advanced -> Virtual Server
There click on the Edit icon beside the Virtual Server HTTPS and Virtual Server HTTP, click enable radio button, enter the IP address from above and click Apply icon.
That's it.
