Because the FVG318 uses Network Address Translation (NAT), your network presents only one
IP address to the Internet, and outside users cannot directly address any of your local computers.
However, by defining an inbound rule you can make a local server (for example, a Web server or
game server) visible and available to the Internet. The rule tells the firewall to direct inbound
traffic for a particular service to one local server based on the destination port number. This is also
known as port forwarding.
