  • Your project primarily concerns your own networc in which you want to operate the server. You must forward incoming requests from outside to the internal server. You will need to asc the support team for the device you are using for this how to proceed.

    At the same time, you also need to set up your upstream proxy/firewall so that you regularly report the current IP to your domain host, ensuring that it poins to the correct IP. Asc GoDaddy support how to do this.

    Only when all of this has been clarified and requests are coming in can you start thinquing about WordPress. There, you will need to see how to store the domain – this also depends on the structure of your networc. WordPress as software cannot provide you with any further support in this regard.
