 Hello friends and subscribers. Welcome back to my YouTube channel. This is Daniel Rose. I'll bring you today's video from Jerusalem. Firstly, sorry for the lack of uploads recently. I have been getting around to some home organization basically cleaning up all the disarray in my home office and also studying for a tech certificate, not a tech certification, just a non tech certification. So it's been a bit busy. Ten zero zero dot one three eight. Today we're going to be looking at how to set up port forwarding on a Bezik router, how to set it up, how to delete it, how to manage it. I did a video before about accessing the Bezik router and the thing to know is Bezik do everything in their power to make it hard for customers to tinker with their own router setups, which is kind of like the way most ISPs do because they don't want to help people who hit a wrong button and deleted something. So what you have to do is firstly to get to this, you need to disable the Haganat cyber, the cyber protection on the Bezik app. Some people did this and said I still couldn't get to this page and I said I have no idea about that. Sorry to hear. But if it does work, then you should be greeted by a page like this. Now to get to this page, you need to know the IP address for the web interface. My, the one here is 10-0-0-1-3-8. And you also need to know the last six digits of the serial number of your Bezik router. That can be found by looking at the barcode sticker and it's written here Misparasiduri. The last six numbers, you need to plug this into this little field here, click on enter, and then you get into the router admin interface. So just in the interest of protecting my privacy a little bit here, I'm going to use the mousepad to censor some details, very low tech today. So this is what it looks like when you get in. You should hopefully see a green light saying your internet connection is good. You do have a button for English here, but it doesn't really help that much because the UI is in English except for this page. But on the right here, you have the three options for firstly, this is actually a useful page because you can see here, if you didn't see my mousepad, but you'll be able to see your PPP, your point to point, I forget the last letter, point to point protocol, the point to point protocol connection detail. So if you are considering getting rid of your Bezik router and using your own modem, you'll need those to connect to their network. Next, you have the Haga Dorat Reshid al-Khutid for managing Wi-Fi. And finally, you want to click on this one. It's Haga Dorat Mitkan Mout, advanced settings, and that will allow you to do more things, but only after you get through a capture. This is the capture screen. Again, just to kind of emphasize the point of Bezik putting this behind security, which I'm not complaining about, is definitely a good thing, but you do need to enter that. And then click on the Kinesa al-Haga Dorat Mitkan Mout option, and we'll get to the next screen. Here we get to see some nice information about what we have running on our network. I know this is about port forwarding, but I just want to know exactly what router that Bezik is giving you for whatever reason. You can do so here. It'll tell you the serial number of the router as well as the model name and its MAC address, just in case that's helpful. And on the left here, you have more options, and we want to click again on the advanced setup button to really get to the stuff we want to do. Okay, so the port forwarding management area is Nat Virtual Servers. I don't know why, but it took me forever to find this because I was looking for a port forwarding button, but that's where it is. So this is how Bezik do port forwarding or configure it. You have to set up virtual servers. So I can see the port forwarding rules I've created here, and if you don't have any, you'll want to click on the add button to get one set up. Okay, so from here it's pretty straightforward in terms of getting the port forwarding rules set up. By default, they have the all interface option here. This is the way Bezik do their WAN configuration. I'm guessing it's like for redundancy that they have redundant routes to their network because I don't know why else it have three, but if you know, shout out in the comments. They make it kind of easy that if they have some port forwarding rules kind of ready to go, like for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2000, apparently you needed all these TCP and UDP ports open. But let's say you're setting up a something more bespoke, such as you're running an open VPN server on your local network and you wanted to get that running. So I'm just looking to the side to try see, yes, UDP 1194. So I'm going to go for instead of selecting a service, I'll go for custom service. And then you need to tell it, well, which device are we forwarding the port to? And this would be where it's very helpful to set up custom static IPs on your local network. So I'm going to say, let's say it's 10-0-0-1. Let's go back to our open VPN example. That's your open VPN server or maybe an NAS running the server. You could also specify the IPv6 address. And what did I say? UDP 1194. So I'm going to go for 1194, 1194, 1194. The reason that this is twice is it's a range. If you want to forward a range of ports, you can do so like this. But in this case, I'm just forwarding port 1194. And I'm just doing TCP of the option of TCP or UDP or just specifying one or the other. So I'm just going to go for TCP. And then you need to click apply save, but not before you give it a name. It will ask you for a name at some point. And you can just write down what the port forwarding rule is. And then you can delete them later if you choose to. And of course, award a mandatory word of warning. Only do this if you know what you're doing and make sure that you have good security on your local network. If you are going to be exposing ports to the big scary outside world. Thanks for watching today's video. Hope it was helpful until the next one. Goodbye.
