Simple Port Forwarding is a useful program for Windows that allows you to access PC machines on a local network from external systems. The port mapping and forwarding technique gives you the ability to make computers behind a router or NAT visible to users outside the LAN.
Comprehensive data display
The software comes equipped with a clean graphical interface that has all its functions organized in several tabs. This means you are able to view the router info as soon as you select the device from the dedicated list. It is possible to view essential details about which app is forward to which IP. You can also check out the start and end ports, the number of ports to be opened and their type.
App database and verification
Another important aspect of this utility is the in-built database that contains a huge number of games and apps alongside the ports they use. It is also possible to manually add custom ports by specifying the name, type, start and end ports, as well as the IP address.
When you are done with the configuration, you can verify the forwarding capabilities of the selected ports via the testing tool included in the distribution. If you would like to create your own website, you need a special server kit, which may be installed via a program package such as MAMP.
