If want to control equipment from out of home
  1. Enter WAN's IP address to "Host and ports" of System Properties.
  2. From my router's setting, Port 10207 to LANBridge's local IP address.
This is the example how "port80" forwad to the security camera.
It's very easy....

Question.
Now my GUI inclideds 2 LANBridges.
  1. IP Address...192.168.1.151 / Remote Port...10207
  2. IP Address...192.168.1.152 / Remote Port...10207
Now if I set port 10207 to forwart to 192.168.1.151, the 2nd LANBridge wouln't work...
Could you please advise me how do I set my router?

Well you need two distinct (different ports on the WAN side) so

Port type: TCP
LAN: 192.168.1.151:10207 > WAN Port 10207 
LAN: 192.168.1.152:10207 > WAN Port 10208

Remember you can select any WAN facing port number between:
49152–65535 to make it harder to guess what service\device you are running it also adds another layer of security.

This way your iViewer project can tell the difference between both LBs when outside.

Using a VPN instead

Using a VPN on the other hand you would be able to use the bridges as you mention above. (different IPs same port) 

However you would always need to connect to the VPN first to gain access to all devices on your network. Generally more secure as you control who accesses your  LBs.


Hope this helps

Understood...
Then do I need to change the setting of "Slots" from the default?

If so, the max number of device will be reduced from 25 to the half?

Depends on the outcome you desire,

Looking at the default tab you linked to, there are 15 possible connections to 10207 and 10 to 10208.

So TCP ports
LAN 192.168.1.151:10207 > WAN:10207
LAN 192.168.1.151:10208 > WAN:10208
LAN 192.168.1.152:10207 > WAN :10209
LAN 192.168.1.152:10208 > WAN :10210

As long as you have a free connection the LAN  Bridge should allocate it.
It thinks all connections are from the LAN

To answer your question, no need to change anything on the LAN bridge if using the slots as linked and the mapping scheme above on the router.

Once again a VPN would make it easy as you are treated as a LAN user.
If you describe the outcome you are seeking we can adapt.

Also note that the maximum 25 connections is for TCP sockets, so if you have TCP Client connections please count those as part of your calculations.

The max 25 connections is shared between all communication slots to however you define. For TCP Server mode, you choose the max, TCP Client counts as 1 connection always.
