To set up port forwarding on PTCL, first, log in to your router's web interface by entering its IP address in a browser. Use your admin credentials to access the settings. Navigate to the port forwarding section, usually found under "Advanced" or "NAT" settings, and enter the internal IP address of the device you want to forward ports to, along with the specific ports you wish to open. Save the changes and restart the router if necessary to apply the new settings.


Which addresses or combination of address es does a layer 3 switch use to make forwarding dicisions?

A Layer 3 switch uses IP addresses to make forwarding decisions. It examines the destination IP address in the packet's header to determine the best path for forwarding. Additionally, it may utilize routing tables, which contain network prefixes and associated next-hop addresses, to efficiently route packets between different subnets. This enables Layer 3 switches to perform both switching and routing functions within a network.

When i make a Cs dedicated Server My ip is 10.0.0.x How do you change it?

To change your dedicated CS server's IP address from 10.0.0.x to a public IP, you need to configure your router's port forwarding settings to direct traffic to your server's local IP. You can also assign a static IP to your server within your local network settings to ensure it doesn't change. Finally, if you're using a hosting service, you may need to select a different server location or IP from their control panel.
