Question

I am completely new bie to IIS.

I have a very basic knowledge about how to configure IIS.

Today I have a requirement to access website Globally through WAN (through internet from any PC all over world) which I have deployed in my Local IIS.

The website=> SilverLightBusinessApplicationWeb

which you can see in my below screen shot can be open in LAN nicely.

so I only looking for how to open it in WAN?

So anybody please suggest me a simple steps or instruction for it.

You can see two screen shot of Internet Information Service (IIS) Manager.

NOTE: 1. I also have static IP 2. i am using IIS7.0 with Windows-7

Thank you so much…..

Solution

This question is probably better off on ServerFault. However, providing you have everything set up on your machine, you just need to open and forward port 80 to your host machine and set up a domain or access the site directly via external IP providing your bindings are set up correctly.

EDIT From a security point of view, it would be better practice to do as Germann said by having your public facing web server in its own DMZ.

OTHER TIPS

Finally i have got it........ the steps i have followed are......

  1. define port forwarding at router for that i have enter following values in my router's forwarding page.

    --IP address of my PC

    --port number which is open(you can see screen shot Brouse*:80(http) which shows port 80
    is open for website on my IIS.

  2. finally i have opened website on my IIS by : .http://mystaticip:port/xyzfolder/xyz.html.
