GX20 setup Help

[ScottWilliams]

Is it possible to set up a port on the GX20 so that a device can pass through the GX20 as if it were connected directly to the ISP modem? 

Issue:

IDEXX can't remotely connect to their router in order to update the lab equipment software. IDEXX requests that I bypass my Router/Firewall and connect their router directly to the ISP modem. Unfortunately, the ISP modem only has 1 port.

My set up:

The ISP modem is connected directly to the GX20 WAN. 

POE port goes to the WAP

Port 1 to my switch, then to work stations

Port 2 to a router provided by our lab equipment company IDEXX. Lab analysis machines are connected to the router.

hello @ScottWilliams 

Unfortunately the GX20 does not support DMZ, so what you're asking for is not available out of the box.

But there might be a workaround.

In order to make it work, you need to know the port-number or port-range IDEXX uses to connect to the router. It would also be helpful to know the IP-address IDEXX has or uses for that type of connection.

Then you can set port forwarding rules on the GX20 and allow only IDEXX to use those ports.
