Port forwarding in Windows

An example of port forwarding is shown below :

C:\Windows\system32>netsh interface portproxy add v4tov4 listenaddress=192.168.18.43 listenport=5555 connectport=80 connectaddress= 192.168.87.142 protocol=tcp

Here, 192.168.18.43 is the IP address of my local computer and 192.168.87.142 is the IP address of a virtual machine running inside my local machine. The above command will port forward all requests coming to 192.168.18.43:5555 to 192.168.87.142.
