  2. Port forwarding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_forwarding

    Port forwarding via NAT router. In computer networking, port forwarding or port mapping is an application of network address translation (NAT) that redirects a communication request from one address and port number combination to another while the packets are traversing a network gateway, such as a router or firewall.

  3. List of managed DNS providers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_managed_DNS_providers

    This is a list of notable managed DNS providers in a comparison table. A managed DNS provider offers either a web-based control panel or downloadable software that allows users to manage their DNS traffic via specified protocols such as: DNS failover, dynamic IP addresses, SMTP authentication, and GeoDNS.

  4. Network address translation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_address_translation

    Network address translation between a private network and the Internet. Network address translation (NAT) is a method of mapping an IP address space into another by modifying network address information in the IP header of packets while they are in transit across a traffic routing device. [1]

  5. Port (computer networking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_(computer_networking)

    IANA is responsible for the global coordination of the DNS root, IP addressing, and other protocol resources. This includes the registration of commonly used TCP and UDP port numbers for well-known internet services. The port numbers are divided into three ranges: the well-known ports, the registered ports, and the dynamic or private ports.

  6. Forwarding information base - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forwarding_information_base

    The label edge routers at the edges of an MPLS cloud map between the end-to-end identifier, such as an IP address, and a link-local label. At each MPLS hop, there is a forwarding table that tells the label-switched router which outgoing interface is to receive the MPLS packet, and what label to use when sending the packet out that interface.

    What is the difference between port forwarding and port address translation?— Omegatron 15:43, August 23, 2005 (UTC) For the record, it's that port address translation is a method of dynamically assigning source ports from an exposed public ip for connections to a remote server from an internal private ip, whereas port forwarding forwards a destination port on a exposed public ip to an ...

  9. Dynamic Source Routing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_Source_Routing

    Dynamic source routing protocol (DSR) is an on-demand protocol designed to restrict the bandwidth consumed by control packets in ad hoc wireless networks by eliminating the periodic table-update messages required in the table-driven approach. The major difference between this and the other on-demand routing protocols is that it is beacon-less ...
