AVM-portfw⚓︎

AVM-portfw can expose ports of the Fritz!Box itself, and only those ports, for access from the internet.

It uses internet_forwardrules and only supports IPv4 forwards. It can be found in menuconfig under packages > webif.
Because ar7.cfg is modified, create a complete backup first - EXPERIMENTAL!

  • Specify port blocks as PORT+COUNT, for example 55500+3 for 55500-55502.
  • Specify redirects as EXTERNAL(+COUNT):INTERNAL, for example 443:8443 or 80+2:8008.
  • The entries can be checked in the AVM web interface under Diagnosis > Security.
  • If there are syntax errors, AVM resets the complete ar7.cfg.
