SERVER EXPOSURE TO THE INTERNET

[Femi_jkk]

 Please I need help. I have some servers in my production environment that i want to expose to the internet so that their firm wares can be directly up dated, pls how do i go about it. The Internet exposure will just be for a while before i block it back.

That is very risky. Are you sure you want to go that path. I was gonna give you a disclaimer but havent got one handy

Thanks Dennis, it just for like an hour so that the concerned server can use the internet to up date some of their firm ware. I seriously understand the implication, just need help on how to achieve this. Trust you will help me on the procedures.
Once thanks.

do a port forward to like 80 or 443 from your public IP address to your real server IP's iLO interface, assuming you can do the firmware from there, do this on the internet facing router and or firewall, if this is all to hard, please consult a certified network professional to do it for a fee
