I’m a beginner in networking things but due to my ISP I can only open a certain range of ports in my router to be accessible from the outside of my network (something like ports 11000-11500).

That means I can’t open port 443 to access my reverse proxy from the outside. Is it possible to redirect all traffic that’s coming from one of the ports in the range to port 443 of my server?

I haven’t found that possibility in my router (Fritzbox 7530) so is there a way to do this on my server (running Fedora Server)?

    Yes that is possible. You can select in the UI that port A forwards to local Host B to Port B.

        You could’ve only posted less info if you hadn’t posted at all…

        Edit: Anyone who downvotes me here: This comment I commented doesn’t specifiy which UI of which software therefore it’s a pretty useless comment.

        1. you are not entitled to an answer by anyone.
        2. you are already there. Your router does support that, you just need to select it in the UI.

            The reasonable way to approach this problem would have been to ask a follow up question, rather than bitching at someone for not answer in the exact format you required. You’re the beggar here, you get zero fucking say in how much or how little people choose to help you.

        So, here’s a page from the online manual that specifies how to do this specifically for the FritzBox 7530

        https://en.avm.de/service/knowledge-base/dok/FRITZ-Box-7530/893_Configuring-static-port-sharing-in-the-FRITZ-Box/

        Based on the original post though I am 100% sure that OP has already seen this page, already tried it, and therefore knows that the warning under 2.10.b. applies to the OP’s case (i.e. FritzBox doesn’t allow it from UI because the ISP doesn’t allow it - that honestly had me wondering just how the FritzBox knows the ISP doesn’t allow it, but that’s a different topic).

          that honestly had me wondering just how the FritzBox knows the ISP doesn’t allow it, but that’s a different topic

          Because the Fritzbox uses a DS-Lite tunnel.
