yes another port forwarding with nat

[CiscoGuy79]

This is what i'm looking to do.

external network--23-->my router--8080-->to a specified host
this is my command currently:
ip nat inside source static tcp a.b.c.50 8080 int fa0/0 8080

So basically I would like to come remotely connect to my network on 23 and have my router forward that to 8080. I'm not sure if this is possible but I guess that's why i'm asking.

thanks guys in advance

any reason to use tcp port 23?

 

[plshlpme]

so what you have will direct public port 8080 to internal port 8080
ip nat inside source static tcp a.b.c.50 8080 int fa0/0 8080


this would duirect public 23 to internal 8080
ip nat inside source static tcp a.b.c.50 8080 int fa0/0 23

is that what you mean?
this is PAT port address translation so you can send traffic from any port to any port.

Thanks plshlpme I think thats exaclty what I need.


The reason I need 23 is because its only port open on the network that i'm in in iraq.

thanks guys
