Forward Ports for a Synology RS3411xs device
You may need to forward ports in your router when you use a Synology RS3411xs device. Forwarding ports is used to allow incoming connection requests from the internet to a Synology RS3411xs device.
Routers do not generally allow incoming connection requests from the internet. By forwarding a port you can overcome this limitation.
Before Forwarding a Port Checkoff This To Do List
Make sure that you know these things before forwarding a port:
- Your router's internal IP address.
- The internal IP address of your NAS.
- Each of the TCP and UDP ports that you need to forward.
