Configuring port forwarding for Tablo device?

Just acquired a Fortigate 70D and setting it up for the first time. Have not configured anything as complicated or powerful as this firewall before.

 

Tablo is a device for capturing over-the-air TV broadcasts and streaming them to your viewing devices. It requires some port forwarding when you want to reach the device from outside. Specifically, it requires port 21101->8887 and 21100->80.

 

I have tried to configure this on our Fortigate 70D but the device still says it is not properly configured.

 

Here are all the sections of the config that pertain to the Tablo device. Please help me find where I have done something incorrect (or made it more complicated than it needs to be)!

You may try to  replace policy 2 "set service "Tablo1" "Tablo2" with "set service ALL". "firewall service custom " setting is wrong

Well that change certainly fixed something since the device now reports all is well.

I'm still not sure why my original config was wrong, however.

Thanks for the help!

Well I'm back again after we had to re-install this Fortigate 70D. Same problem as before: Tablo device on LAN says NAT is not working properly. It requires WAN TCP port 21101->8887 and TCP port 21100->80.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

Here are all conf entries mentioning Tablo:

Here's another detail that is puzzling. The first port forwarding rule seems to be working but the second is not. They both look like they are configured exactly the same way so I'm wondering why one works but the other does not!

 

See attached screen shot of what the Tablo device reports.

 

Any ideas??

Turns out the second forwarding rule had a typo in the IP address. Looks like everything was done correctly except for that.
