Setting up Port Forwarding in my Verizon Gateway Router

Can someone help me how I can setup my Verizon Gateway Port Forwarding in order to setup an Openvpn server on my GL-MT6000 ?
It is asking for these things:

  1. From Port
  2. Protocol
  3. IP Address
  4. To Port

Thank you.

  • From Port: 1194
  • Protocol: You can check if your openvpn server is using UDP or TCP. Otherwise you can choose both
  • IP Address: This is the WAN IP address displayed on MT6000's admin panel. It is what MT6000 get from your main router.
  • To Port: 1194

Thank you. I have found a service that will charge me $350 to setup these devices which I buy separately so I can travel without any worries. Do you think it is worth it or I can easily set it up? It is very important to me to not get caught by my employer while traveling abroad either through DNS leakage or any other ways.

The price is a little high.
But if they can assue quality and provide timely support, that would be OK.
