Gain remote access to Macs behind AirPort Base Stations
Authored by: mayodreams on May 20, '03 01:19:37PM

Static IP's on an Apple base station must be above 201 in order to establish port fowarding. Besides being easier to map ports, static ip's also increase security because the base station just doesn't give anyone an IP to anyone who has DHCP enabled.

I'm mapping fine to 10.0.1.101 on an Airport Extreme so going above 200 doesn't seem necessary as far as I can tell.

At least on the old Graphite ones this was required.

I used .111 on the old graphite one. I believe this had to do with whether or not you had DHCP running.
