redirect incoming traffic to a service running at an internal port
–> use proxy option..

for example, if you have a ebook server running internal port 70 then,

setup proxy as ‘/ebook/’ ‘http://localhost:70″
and access this from outside by typing https://external_ip:port/ebook/

using this trick, you can link services as many as you want.
