We share useful information for users of virtual machines. Our clients often contact Tucha technical support service with a question about how to configure port forwarding to the server located in a private network, and each time we send a detailed and clear instruction in response. Now we have decided to use these emails to create a useful article that will help other users understand this process.

Why do you need to configure such port forwarding? Let us consider an example. By following all the steps listed below, you can set up TCP and UDP connections with the server connected to a private network. At the same time, port 3389 of this server will receive what will be sent to port 13666 of the external interface of the virtual router.

So, setting up port forwarding to the server located in a private network is very simple:

1.    Go to the section Network, select our network (NET-2019111913000635), and then select View IP Address:
