Port Forwarding on MikroTik RouterOS

This page details the steps required to set up port forwarding on a MikroTik router using the RouterOS interface.

Steps to Configure Port Forwarding:

1. Access RouterOS: Use Winbox or WebFig to access your router settings.
2. Navigate to Firewall Settings: Go to IP > Firewall and select the NAT tab.
3. Create a NAT Rule: Add a new rule by setting the chain to 'dstnat', protocol to TCP or UDP, and defining the destination port.
4. Define Action: Set action to 'dst-nat', specify the internal IP and port.
5. Enable the Rule: Make sure the rule is active and save settings.
6. Test: Verify the configuration by accessing the service from outside the network.

This setup is typically required for hosting services such as web servers or game servers that need to be accessible from the internet.
