Port forwarding a home server
Hi all! I recently setup a home server running CasaOS through a debian linux install. I know barely anything about networking, and I am just relying on TCPShield as a reverse proxy to keep people off of my home IP. I opened up the port 25555 since I don't want to use the default 25565 in-case I need to open up more servers on it in the future, and I also opened a port for a dynmap on 8123 (I don't know if I needed to do this or not, and if I need to also secure that since I don't think TCPShield will cover that).
Now my main question here is, after I have opened up the ports, what do I do now? My router already has a static IP setup locally, and the ports are opened, I just don't really know how to configure it, and I also just have some security concerns since like I said, I don't have much networking knowledge and don't know what TCPSheild fully covers. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
