Now we know our public IP address but can we be sure it will always remain the same? Unfortunately the only way to find this out is to speak to your ISP.
Has your ISP assigned you a “static” or a “dynamic” IP address? If you open up this Web page on the MDaemon server there’s a good chance that it’s this same IP address that the router has assigned.Ī tried and tested service that I often use for this is. Failing that, you can use an IP discovery service to tell you what IP address a machine behind the router apears from outside the network. You can often log into the router device using its own web interface and there will usually be a status section that gives you an overview of the interfaces including IP details. If you don’t already know this there are two ways to find out. Lets look in more details at the requirements of the router…īefore we can go any further we need to know the public IP address assigned to the router’s Internet facing port. Generally speaking most of our customers are using a simple NAT based Internet gateway router connected to their broadband internet connection that often include their own built-in firewall,so it’s just this device that needs to be configured. The exact steps required here do depend very much on the way your MDaemon computer connects to the Internet and what routers and/or firewalls it passes through to do that. What we need to do next is make the HTTPS port (443) visible from the Internet. This however isn’t much help for your mobile device which will need to access it from the outside world.

Important note: This article assumes you have read the specific set-up guide for your device in our Knowledgebase articles below:. While the set-up steps for configuring MDaemon and the devices themselves are very straightforward, because MDaemon needs to be visible to the outside world, there are some networking considerations to be aware of. If you’re a user of the MDaemon email server, and own either an iPhone, Android device or Windows mobile, it’s quite likely at some point you’ll want to synchronise your calendar, contacts and tasks etc.
