What means "port redirect"?
When you connect to a computer, you connect to one or more of its ports.
Eg. Web-server program usually runs on port 80, and IRC-server program
on port 6667. With port redirect, you can redirect a port from your
local computer to another server, or just to another port at the same
computer.

So when do I need port redirect?
Eg. Only one computer in your network has the internet connection. You
want to use IRC and/or e-mail from all the computers. You would then set
NetBug++ to run at the server computer (the one that has the internet
connection), and then set those programs at the other computers to use
the port you redirected at the local server. Eg. you have redirected
local port 110 to your POP3-server. Set the other computers in the network
to connect your server computer, instead of the POP3-server. All data will
be redirected from your local server to the POP3-server and vice versa.

Redirecting port ranges?
NetBug Pro can redirect port ranges, eg. all ports from 1000 to 1100.
The only limit is that the range can contain 250 ports at maximum.




This is a multi-port version of NetBug++. You can add as many redirections
as you have free ports (which means a little less than 65535 :).
