*If running a tunnel SERVER*, and
so that I can set up a permanent port forward on my home router,
I set a static IP address on my (tunneled) node in /setup "WAN"
Which shows up in /status thus
WAN address 	192.168.0.99

(my home router issues IP addresses via DHCP in the range 100 -> 199.)

  So, on my home router I port forward port 5525 with both TCP and UDP from
my ISP address to my tunneled node's WAN address (192.168.0.99).

  If you port forward from your ISP:port# to your node's WAN:8080,
then your node's 'http://' screens will be visible from the internet.
This has nothing to do with tunneling.

*If running only tunnel clients, none of this is needed.**
*
Hope this helps, Chuck
